RQI® For Nursing Education

Resuscitation Quality Improvement® for Nursing Education

Competency-based education – Transforming Resuscitation for Life

Studies show that resuscitation skill degradation occurs as soon as three months after completing a traditional 2-year resuscitation certification training1 which decreases the chance of survival of patients. 

For over 10 years, the Resuscitation Quality Improvement® (RQI®) program has been delivering quarterly high-quality resuscitation skills training in +2,000 hospitals as well as nursing programs. Students with RQI certification demonstrate stronger resuscitation competency going into the workforce which gives them an employment advantage.

Developing competency of nursing students in cardiopulmonary resuscitation using Resuscitation Quality Improvement technology

Exciting Updates from Dr. Oermann’s 2023 Competency-Based Education research of RQI Outcomes. Read the updated study highlighting exciting results emerging from RQI early adopter schools across the US

A Commitment to Excellence in Nursing

RQI® for Nursing Education is powered by the American Heart Association's grounded educational research and science, and Laerdal's simulation technology with real-time audio and video feedback. Nursing Education Partners committed to excellence in nursing have validated the need to integrate low-dose high-frequency Resuscitation learning in nursing and allied health programs.

 

Laerdal, American Heart Association, RQI Partners, and the National League for Nursing (NLN) partnered to encourage nursing programs to adopt the RQI for Nursing Education program.​

Watch the video to see how 12 NLN member schools have revolutionized their High-Quality CPR training by adopting RQI® for Nursing Education.

Low-dose, high-frequency learning
Frequent (every three months) but short training sessions build muscle memory while fine-tuning skill sets.

This method is proven to increase knowledge retention and aid the development of psychomotor skills necessary to administer high-quality Resuscitation.

As the program can be completed from the station, this also provides students continued access to complete training on their own time.

"Quarterly, deliberate practice of resuscitation skills provides the competence nurses need to be able to effectively deliver CPR."
