LPN Ethics Course
LPN Code of Ethics Learning Module
The Code of Ethics for Licensed Practical Nurses was developed as part of the Inter-Jurisdictional LPN Project by the Canadian Council for Practical Nurse Regulators (CCPNR). This Project sought to standardize the LPN Code of Ethics across the Canadian provinces and territories.
The Code of Ethics is an integral part of the knowledge and competence of a Licensed Practical Nurse. LPNs must use a code of ethics and an ethical framework when making professional judgments and practice decisions. They must engage in critical thinking and inquiry to inform decision-making and use self-reflection to understand the impact of personal values, beliefs and assumptions in the provision of care.
This Learning Module was developed to assist LPNs to become familiar with the new Code of Ethics and to provide them with the knowledge and skills to apply the Code in their daily nursing practice.

Welcome to the Learning Nurse e-Learning Center. We have developed several different types of web-based learning modules that we present here. We will continue developing additional modules as time and resources permit.
This e-Learning Center has several sections. First, a section for eCourses. Currently, we have courses on documentation, professional development, LPN Code of ethics, and pressure ulcers. We also have some micro learning nuggets on how to prevent common nursing mistakes. Please click on the appropriate item below to access the relevant page of information.

Benefits of e-Learning
e-Learning has several benefits over traditional classroom training. These include:
1. Cost and time savings. You do not having to travel and spend time away from work.
2. Learning can be done from any location and at any time. This just-in-time benefit makes learning possible for people who never would have been able to work it into their schedules.
3. Learning is self paced. You learn when you want to ... and as fast as you want to! e-Learning is modularized so that you can go through the smaller chucks of training as needed, and absorb it for a while before moving on.
4. You learn faster. Research has shown that e-learning courses progress 50% faster than traditional courses. This is partly because the individualized approach allows you to skip material you already know and understand, and move onto the topics that you really need to learn.
5. Increased retention and a stronger grasp of the subject. This is because of the many elements that are used in e-learning to reinforce the message. Good e-learning modules include audio, interactions, quizzes and other aids to learning. Also, you have the ability to pause or replay sections of the training that may not have been clear the first time around. Try that in a crowded classroom!
