Trauma Nursing Core Course (TNCC)

Every second counts when stabilizing life-threatening trauma cases. This course, taught by qualified nurses, prepares you with the knowledge, critical thinking skills, and training needed to provide high-quality trauma nursing care. The goal of TNCC is to improve trauma patient outcomes by providing nurses with foundational trauma knowledge, skills, and a systematic Trauma Nursing Process to guide trauma patient care. Verification of successful course completion is based on passing the written exam and the Trauma Nursing Process (TNP) psychomotor skills station. Verification is valid for four years. After completing this course, you will be able to properly assess patients and implement evidence-based interventions to improve outcomes for them.

Here’s a glimpse into what you’ll learn:

• The latest trauma nursing practice recommendations
• Systematic assessment and standardized approach to trauma nursing care 
• Rapid identification of life-threatening injuries

Pre-course learning: Includes access to required online modules before the course date to let you learn at your own pace, apply what you learn, and receive immediate feedback. Modules include a step-by-step breakdown of the Trauma Nursing Process and a comprehensive study guide.

This course is typically for very experienced RNs who have had TNCC several times in the past and work in active trauma centers. This is just skills testing with no training. The skills challenge has a 20% fail rate; make sure you are extremely comfortable with the Trauma Nursing Process if you are signed up for this course. You are required to complete the pre-course modules before the course. The course is a 45-minute skills challenge. Classes are delivered via Zoom, students are expected to be visible on camera during class.
