Ongoing Education
We’re dedicated to those who count on us.

Because of our commitment to you and the patients you serve, we believe it is important that our employees continue to enhance and develop their skills.

Annual Training Requirement with Continuing Education (CE) Credit
As an employee of Aureus, you have the benefit of being able to earn CE credits for completing your annual training requirements (designed to meet requirements of JCAHO, OSHA, HIPAA, and most healthcare systems), and receive CE credit at the same time. Log onto "My Learning Community" on the Aureus Medical website to get started!

$300 Allowance for Continuing Education (CE) Credits
Aureus Medical offers continuing education reimbursement to enable you to remain at the top of your profession. Once you have completed 540 hours of service, you are eligible to receive $300 per year for continuing education. Just submit your receipt and a copy of your completion certificate to your Staffing Supervisor.

Other Continuing Education Resources
There are a variety of educational resources available to you for ongoing education. Many industry publications have articles available that will earn you CE credits. A number of professional organizations offer online continuing education programs/credits, conferences, and educational events.

Visit our website for resources!

Thank You!
We offer our heartfelt thanks to those who participated in the disaster relief fund drive benefiting the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

The generosity of our employees is truly amazing. Joining with millions of others across our great country, we have shown that together we are able to make a difference.


We are pleased to announce that over $24,000 in contributions have been received from our employees for this relief fund. The Company will match all contributions dollar for dollar to bring the total company donation of $50,000.

As you know, we will be dividing the contributions equally between the Salvation Army and Feed the Children, two worthy charitable organizations that we trust will distribute the monies appropriately and effectively to help provide food, clothing, medical supplies, and other necessities. The contributions will be made in the name of the employees of Our Family of Companies.

We cannot express how proud we are of you and the great number of employees that have shown tremendous generosity when it is needed the most. Disasters such as this cause us to pause and reflect on how fortunate we all are. We ask you to continue to keep the victims of Hurricane Katrina in your thoughts as they move forward to rebuild their homes and their lives.

Sincerely,

Larry & Kathy Courtnage
CEOs, Aureus Medical Group – a division of Our Family of Companies
