Our program is thoughtfully segmented into three integral stages to provide a deep and comprehensive understanding of legal forensic nursing: Theory, Practicum, and Residency.
Theory: This initial stage lays the foundational knowledge necessary for excelling in legal forensic nursing. It delves into specialized legal terminology and vital medico-legal concepts that are essential for effective communication with attorney clients. This foundation is crucial for those aiming to become proficient in the nuances of legal forensic nursing.
Practicum: The practicum stage is centered on enhancing your legal forensic report-writing skills. Through hands-on engagement with three real life case studies, you will apply theoretical knowledge to produce detailed and persuasive medical-legal reports. This stage is enriched with access to extensive recorded trainings, downloadable resources, and expert guidance via zoom weekly to fine-tune your reporting skills. Completion of the case reports culminates in the awarding of the LFNC Certification affirming your expertise in legal forensic nursing.
Residency: This is the phase where our program truly distinguishes itself from others. While many programs might teach the theoretical 'what' of legal forensic nursing, we excel by showing you the practical 'how'—specifically, how to monetize your skills. We understand that transitioning from nursing to running a successful home-based business can be daunting, as nurses are often not trained in business fundamentals. This is why our residency phase is designed to bridge that gap, ensuring you not only learn but also apply your knowledge to earn your first paychecks.
What sets our program apart is our commitment to your success. We stay by your side until you have successfully handled a minimum of three cases, ensuring you have not only theoretical knowledge but real-world experience and earnings to show for it.

ANCC'S Nationally Recognized Accreditation
When continuing education courses are approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN), they often meet the criteria set by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation (ANCC). The ANCC's accreditation is nationally recognized and many state boards of nursing across the United States accept CE credits approved by ANCC-accredited providers. This widespread recognition means that courses approved by the California BRN, which align with ANCC standards, are generally accepted for CE credits in many other states. However, it's always advisable for nurses to confirm with their specific state board to ensure compliance with local continuing education requirements.
