When health care practices meet the legal process — in medical malpractice, insurance fraud, personal injury or worker's compensation — legal nurse consultants play a key role by helping attorneys, judges, juries and other involved parties understand the facts of the case. Licensed RNs who hold BSNs can qualify themselves for this role through 黑洞社区's Post-Baccalaureate Legal Nurse Consultant certificate program.
Our graduate-level legal nurse consulting certificate offers specialized education that empowers RNs to evolve with health care's challenges. Legal nurse consultants analyze and evaluate medical records, histories and testimony; explain clinical practices, concepts and terminology; and deliver informed professional opinions. These skills are valuable to health care systems' legal teams, law firms and insurance companies.
The curriculum includes coursework that examines legal issues in nursing practice, philosophical and ethical questions in health care, and the clinical implications of forensic nursing. The courses are available 100% online, so you can complete your coursework and earn your certificate on your own schedule.
