The blog is a collaboration of Emory Healthcare Nursing (EHC) and Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing (SON) and the Clinical Informationists at Woodruff Health Sciences Center Library of Emory University.

Finding CEUs in Individual Journals
Some individual nursing journals provide quizzes that can be taken for CNE credit after reading designated articles.
NOTE: Not all CE content in individual journals is free, even if the library has a subscription to that journal. Most journals require users to pay a fee after taking an individual quiz.
- Articles in journals that provide CE content are indexed in CINAHL Ultimate and can be located by filtering search results to CEUs.
- Perform a keyword search for a topic you are interested in – e.g. peritoneal dialysis and limit to CE Module
