Frontier Nursing University Offers Course on Caring for Veterans
Frontier Nursing University has created a continuing education course to prepare healthcare professionals to provide culturally sensitive care to veterans within their community. Developed by military-connected faculty at FNU, the “Care of the Veteran” program is a self-paced module that will guide clinicians through understanding military culture, service-connected health concerns, and developing a plan of care utilizing military service benefits. “We are excited to offer this course for any clinician who wants to increase their understanding and improve the care they provide to this special population,” said FNU Dean of Nursing Dr. Joan Slager, CNM, DNP, FACNM, FAAN. “This course was developed by multiple FNU faculty who are veterans and understand the unique healthcare needs and challenges that veterans face.”
