ANCC Provider P0557 • No Subscription Required • $89 One-Time Price

Nevada requires more of APRNs than of any other nurse. Each renewal, Nevada APRNs must complete 4 hours of cultural competency, 2 hours of SBIRT, and, if registered to dispense controlled substances, 2 hours on substance use disorders and opioid prescribing, plus 2 hours of suicide prevention every 4 years and the SB 439 HIV stigma training for those in emergency or primary care settings. This package covers all five in 12 contact hours, including 4 pharmacotherapeutic hours.

Choose this package if:

  • You are a Nevada nurse practitioner, CNM, CRNA, or CNS renewing your APRN license
  • You want every Nevada-specific mandate handled in one purchase instead of hunting for five separate courses
  • You prescribe controlled substances and need the NRS 632.2375 opioid and substance use disorder training
  • You want the hours to count toward your federal MATE Act total and your pharmacology hours
  • You want ANCC-accredited CE from provider P0557 with instant certificates

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this package cover every Nevada APRN continuing education mandate?

It covers the five topic-specific mandates: 4 hours of cultural competency, 2 hours of SBIRT, 2 hours of opioid prescribing and substance use disorders under NRS 632.2375, 2 hours of suicide prevention, and the 2-hour SB 439 HIV stigma training. It does not include the one-time 4-hour bioterrorism course or the one-time 8-hour federal MATE Act training, though the opioid course contributes 2 hours toward the MATE Act total.

Is the cultural competency course on the Nevada State Board of Nursing approved list?

Yes. Nevada Cultural Competency for Nurses 4 Contact Hours was approved by the Nevada State Board of Nursing, which is required for the course to count toward the cultural competency mandate.

I do not prescribe controlled substances. Do I still need the opioid course?

The NRS 632.2375 requirement applies only to APRNs who are registered to dispense controlled substances. If you do not prescribe, the course still provides 2 pharmacotherapeutic hours that count toward your general and APRN-specific hours.

How often do I need each course?

Cultural competency, SBIRT, and the opioid and substance use disorder training are required every renewal cycle. Suicide prevention is required every 4 years. The SB 439 HIV stigma training must be completed within 2 years of starting to provide or supervise emergency services in a hospital or primary care setting.

Does this package count toward my pharmacology hours?

The opioid prescribing and substance use disorders course and the SBIRT course are each approved for 2 pharmacotherapeutic contact hours, for 4 pharmacology hours in the package. If you need more pharmacology hours for national certification, our 25-hour nurse practitioner pharmacology package is sold separately.

How many total hours does a Nevada APRN need?

Nevada APRNs complete the 30 contact hours required of all nurses every 2 years plus 15 additional APRN hours. The 12 hours in this package count toward those totals; the remaining hours can be any ANCC-accredited continuing education.

Is this package accredited?

Yes. Renew Now CE is accredited as a provider of nursing continuing professional development by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation, Provider P0557. The Nevada State Board of Nursing accepts ANCC-accredited contact hours.

How is each course completed?

Every course is 100 percent online and self paced. Read the material, complete the self-check questions, pass the post-test with a score of 70 percent or higher, and complete a short evaluation. You have unlimited post-test attempts and receive a certificate for each course.

When do I receive my certificates?

Each certificate is available for immediate download as soon as you pass that course's post-test and complete the evaluation. Keep copies in case the Nevada State Board of Nursing audits your continuing education.

Is this reported to CE Broker?

Nevada does not currently use CE Broker for nursing license renewal, so you will keep your certificates for your own records. If you also hold a license in a state that requires CE Broker reporting, Renew Now CE will report your completions there.

How much does the package cost?

The package is $89 as a one-time purchase with no subscription required. The five courses are $111 purchased separately.
