"Nurses have a unique and growing role to play in helping to guide their patient’s care decisions and care transitions, from the emergency department to skilled or custodial care at home.
 
"The LTCCP® designation allows me as a nurse to expand my professional expertise as part of the retirement planning round table for financial planners, LTC insurance agents, and home care professionals.
 
"Nurses - as the most-trusted professionals for 23 years - should take the LTCCP® course to effectively help their patients and themselves understand how to address long term care needs due to the Silver Tsunami.  This includes advice on how to efficiently and effectively navigate a LTC insurance claim as well as purchasing LTC insurance.
 
"In addition, nurses facing career burnout need a strategy to leave the bedside.  Being certified in LTC insurance claims is the most cost effective way to participate in this hyper-niche that has been funded for 20-plus years by people who are planners.  Being an LTCCP® is a 'non-salesy' way to monetize our nursing experience.  It expands our ability to take care of our patients and continue to be paid well, even allowing for our services be untied from just hospital room charges."
