Continuing Competency is required to renew your Holistic Nursing or Nurse Coaching certification. There are different ways to demonstrate continuing competency. One way is through the acquisition of traditional CE hours. Another way is through different professional development activities. Below you will find information to help you meet the continuing competency requirement. All continuing competency hours submitted must build your knowledge base and/or skills in your certification specialty. Medical focused courses will not be accepted for AHNCC Recertification unless you can explain how they relate to your practice. (For more details see the Recertification Handbook/Continuing Competency Requirements.)
Here are some Upcoming Activities.

Identifying Patients Experiencing Trafficking and Exploitation
Children and adolescents who experience sex and labor trafficking and exploitation may seek health care in a variety of settings, such as emergency departments, community clinics and private practices. That makes it “essential that pediatric providers anywhere are equipped to recognize potential T/E [trafficking and exploitation] and respond appropriately.
American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), 2023
The role of the pediatric healthcare provider includes advocating for the rights of children and adolescents. Child trafficking and exploitation are violations of basic human rights and can result in serious physical and mental harms.
Children and adolescents can be disproportionately vulnerable to trafficking and exploitation (Chang et al., 2022).
Their neurobiology has not developed enough for them to effectively assess risk.
They have fewer life experiences that could warn them away from the psychological manipulation used by traffickers and exploiters.
Adolescents may be more impulsive because of brain reward circuits that can act to encourage experimental and risky behaviors, especially when the youth use substances or alcohol.
Although healthcare providers are not charged with eliminating child trafficking and exploitation, they are on the front lines for identifying children and adolescents who have been victimized or are at risk for victimization.
