UCHealth Nursing Professional Certifications

UCHealth Northern Colorado Foundation is proud to support our nurses at Greeley Hospital, Medical Center of the Rockies and Poudre Valley Hospital in achieving professional board certifications and re-certifications that go beyond job requirements.

This fund provides financial assistance for certifications, re-certifications and preparatory courses, empowering nurses to advance their expertise and contribute to our shared mission.

Supporting UCHealth Nurses

By investing in the professional development of our nurses, we strive to promote employee well-being and the ongoing growth of our nursing teams. Together, we’re empowering our nurses to achieve excellence and elevate care for patients and our community.

Eligible Certifications

To qualify, certifications must be job-related, but not required in the nurse’s job description. They should also enhance UCHealth’s standards of care and organizational excellence.

Why Pursue a Certification?

Professional board certifications validate expertise, foster professional growth and reinforce high standards in patient care and safety. Certified nurses contribute to improved patient outcomes, stronger nurse engagement and a culture of nursing excellence.

Empower Nurse Excellence—Make a Difference Today

Your generosity empowers our nurses to pursue advanced certifications, enhancing patient care and strengthening our commitment to exceptional health care.
