Wolters Kluwer unveils Lippincott CoursePoint+ to aid nursing schools in preparing students to effectively transition to practice -

Professional information services provider Wolters Kluwer has released Lippincott CoursePoint+, a fully integrated and personalised platform that drives course and curriculum success to prepare students for practice.

Lippincott CoursePoint+, available across the curriculum for Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) and core Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) courses, is a single destination for learning where faculty and administrators can assess student performance in real-time to make data-driven teaching decisions, facilitating early remediation at the point of learning. The solution integrates virtual simulation and real-world, evidence-based practice information to facilitate students' critical thinking, clinical reasoning and professional skills in context of patient care.

Originally introduced in 2013, CoursePoint was the first nursing education learning solution to integrate eBook and multimedia content with adaptive learning to provide content in context. Since then, students' learning styles have continued evolving, driven by the ubiquitous nature of social media and mobile technology that has created a greater desire for adaptive learning.

The latest release of CoursePoint+ delivers more premium content than ever, including annual content updates, online access to Stedman's Medical Dictionary for Health Professions and Nursing, and multiple tools for contextual learning. These include adaptive learning powered by prepU with built-in SmartSense links, which provide instant remediation for a more focused study experience to ensure student success in courses and on the NCLEX®.

To help students make a successful transition to practice, CoursePoint+ also includes vSim for Nursing. Co-developed with Laerdal Medical, vSim simulates real nursing scenarios and allows students to interact with virtual patients in a safe online environment. Plus, users have full access to Lippincott Advisor for Education, giving students access to the same evidence-based content and drug information used in hospitals nationwide.

Lippincott CoursePoint+ is part of the Lippincott digital suite of nursing education solutions, which includes the educational electronic health record, Lippincott DocuCare, and the adaptive NCLEX preparation solution, Lippincott PassPoint. Lippincott digital solutions are also backed by Customer Success, comprehensive training services and support to ensure educators' success.
