Griffiths, Margaret J.; Czekanski, Kathleen
Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing, v34 n4 p162-71 Jul-Aug 2003
A refresher course to facilitate the return of inactive nurses to the work force included a weighted admission system, didactic content, simulated laboratory experiences, and precepted clinical experiences. Recommendations for future course implementation included a systematic evaluation of each participant's knowledge base at the beginning of the course and an extended course time frame to allow for greater integration of content.
