My Goal Is To Serve YOU!

Hi...I'm Kay

THANK YOU SO MUCH for visiting my website!  I'm so happy you've decided to check out my courses :)  Here's my bio so you can get to know me better!


Kay Hoppe MSN, RN, CNS, CCRN, PCCN has been a Critical Care Nurse, CNS, and Educational Consultant for 40 years. She has spoken extensively throughout the nation on critical care nursing topics and is well-known for her CCRN Revew course.  Nurses consistently comment on how Kay makes difficult concepts easy to understand.  She has had over a half million downloads of her CCRN Review podcast.


Kay received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and her Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Wisconsin in Madison. As a staff nurse and CNS, she worked in various ICU, CCU, Burn, and Trauma settings. Kay has been teaching in the university setting for the past four years.


When she is not teaching, Kay loves to spend time with her daughters, Jenna and Olivia as well as her dogs Milo and Roxy. She also loves spending time outside in her flower gardens.
