The Certified Hospice and Palliative Nurse (CHPN®) exam from the Hospice and Palliative Credentialing Center (HPCC) is designed for hospice and palliative registered nurses. HPNA offers several educational resources to help you prepare for your upcoming CHPN® exam.
HPCC is not able to conduct or recommend specific exam preparation materials. The use of HPNA exam preparation materials does not imply successful performance on HPCC certification exams. The use of HPNA exam preparation materials does not give an advantage over candidates who do not choose to use them.
This self-paced interactive CHPN® review course includes six modules with interactive case studies and knowledge checks. Interactions are designed to engage the learner and provide feedback that reinforces underlying content. As a participant, the learner is then invited to problem solve, which demands use of critical thinking skills moving beyond recall of knowledge to analysis, evaluation, and application. This conceptual learning experience enables students to develop a real understanding of the subject matter, which leads to greater levels of confidence and therefore greater levels of engagement. Each module has its own objectives and slide presentation with accompanying audio.
Modules include:
Overview, Test Taking Strategies, and Application
Patient Care Assessment & Planning
Patient Care: Pain Management
Patient Care: Symptom Management
Patient and Family Care, Support, Education, and Patient Advocacy
