Poison Center Professional Education
The Kentucky Regional Poison Center at Kosair Children's Hospital, part of Norton Healthcare, has developed an educational series to offer AMA PRA Category 1TM credits for physicians, and continuing education credits (CEUs) for nurses and pharmacists.
This allows for online review of educational materials and receipt of CE credits. The offerings also are available for review and as a resource for those who do not wish to receive continuing education credits. No personal information will be required for those who would like to review the information or use it as a resource. There is no fee for any of our courses.
