UofL Hospital will host its first Nurse Executive and Nurse Executive Advanced nursing certification Exam Review on Dec. 3 and 4 in Louisville, Ky. The review course prepares registered nurses with a bachelor's degree or higher in nursing, and mid-level administrative or higher managerial positions, to become board certified in nursing administration through the American Nurse Credentialing Center (ANCC).
Once an individual meets eligibility requirements to take the certification examination, and successfully passes, they are awarded the Nurse Executive-Board Certified (NE-BC) or Nurse Executive Advanced Board Certified (NEA-BC) credential, valid for five years. For eligibility criteria, please refer to the ANCC’s website.
The two-day course will be led by Joshua Gunter, MSN, RN, NEA-BC, CCRN-CMC. Gunter is the chief nursing officer for Select Specialty Hospital in Birmingham, Ala. Prior to pursuing health care leadership, he worked as a bedside cardiac intensive care nurse, during which he obtained his CCRN and CMC certifications. He has led intensive care and cardiac stepdown units, as well as respiratory and informatics departments.
