New Group of Nurse Care Managers Completes the GLearn NCM Core Curriculum Program

18 learners representing 13 different practices from across the state completed the GLearn Nurse Care Manager Core Curriculum Training Program this month. Learners represented a wide range of experience levels. Some learners were brand new to nurse care coordination while others had years of experience. Over the course of 12 weeks, the learners completed a series of online modules tailored to their experience level. They also logged into weekly group learning calls facilitated by RI-based program faculty. Learning culminates in each NCM giving a capstone presentation at CTC-RI’s Best Practices in Team-Based Care meeting.

This is the 5th year that CTC-RI has been able to offer this opportunity to RI nurse care managers. CTC-RI partners with Geisinger to develop and implement the program. Geisinger developed online modules covering disease-specific content as well as care management and patient engagement skills. Participating learners are eligible to earn CEUs to demonstrate their increased mastery of these skills.
The NCM Core Curriculum program is funded by UnitedHealthcare and the RI Department of Health. This support allows us to offer the program to RI NCMs at no cost. The 2nd half of the learners will be presenting their capstone presentations on February 21 at 8am. This group is comprised of learners who work in family practices. If you would like to attend, please email Sarah Summers at ssummers@ctc-ri.org for the Zoom invitation. You can view the previous group's capstones focused on adult patients using this link.
