Board Vitals - Nursing
NOVEMBER 11, 2018
A question many nurses working in critical care ask themselves is whether or not to sit for the CCRN certification. I certainly did, and for me, the answer was yes. Before deciding if it is right for you, it is important to understand the value of a certification. Certification exams serve to demonstrate mastery in a field or specialty; both to one’s self and the rest of the world.

I recently took care of a high school student, mom confided that she wanted to be a nurse. I was curious what attracted her to nursing. She replied (monotone, and without eye contact): "I want to be a nurse because I want to help people" I love that response, but it's a knee-jerker. So did I. I still do. So did we all. If I knew then what I know now, I would say nurse candidates should be prepared for a different mind set.

Within one 5 hour shift, I had the entire spectrum of Manbaby stages: infantile, toddler, school age, adolescent and grown-ass adult. It is interesting to observe the progression. 1. The infant was 11 months old. A third child with a "really high temp, and going up and up" in spite of basically a topical spritz of Tylenol at 99.5 degrees. No other symptoms, yet the parent was beside herself, screaming on her phone about the catastrophic medical emergency for which she nearly called 911.
