NRP: Renewal Neonatal Resusciation Program Upcoming Courses

Designed For: The Renewal Course is for those experienced NRP providers who have current NRP certification that they need to renew (see Certification below). Providers need to show proof of current NRP Provider Course Completion Card. Please review "Which ACLS, PALS, or NRP Course Is Right For Me?".

Description: Renewal Courses are generally offered as megacode skills testing stations (at Community Medical Center, these are offered in 2 hour blocks).Successful completion of the megacode skills and written test is required for certification. Please note the following (according to the AHA/AAP):

  • Pre-course preparation is required
  • Learners need not perform any skills checklists
  • Learners require update on revised NRP materials (part of pre-course prep)
  • Learners may not require supervised practice; the megacode skills testing may be conducted without practice with an instructor

Certification: This card is valid for two years following your course completion date. To maintain your provider status, you may complete a Provider Renewal course prior to the “Recommended Renewal Date” listed on your card. Please note: Since the Academy does not grant a grace period, if you do not renew your provider status by the “Recommended Renewal Date,” you must repeat the standard length Provider course.

Agenda: 2-hour blocks; students register for a time to demonstrate skills and complete written examination. Please be on time as evaluation begins directly at start time.

Location: Rehab Dayroom and Conference Rooms, Community Medical Center

Class Ratio: 4-6:1
