Brush Up on the Building Blocks of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation
AACVPR understands that new healthcare challenges may mean budget and staff constraints for our members’ programs. The time- and cost-effective bundles of The Staff Competencies for Core Components contain vital information on the key elements of cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation to support your program staff in delivering excellence in an evolving healthcare environment.
Each module has been designed in allignment with the "Core Competencies for Cardiac Rehabilitation/Secondary Prevention Professionals: 2010 Update" and "Clinical Competency Guidelines for Pulmonary Rehabilitation" documents and can be used to meet the competency requirements for Program Cetification. Please Note: CR Competencies can only be used to meet the requirements for the CR Application, and PR Competencies can only be used to meet the requirements for the PR application.
As with all AACVPR Learning Center courses, access to the course is tied to the individual who purchases the bundle. Programs that would like to use the Staff Competencies Bundle for Program Certification can purchase one bundle for use by their team. AACVPR can provide PDF versions of the module exams upon written requests to education@aacvpr.org. The Staff Competencies Bundle will only allow for one individual to claim CEU credit for completion of the modules, so if additional staff members would like to claim credits, they will need to complete and submit the Additional CEU Request Form and pay the required additional CEU fee.
