If they aren't taking your exams, paying your tuition or sitting in front of the NCLEX for you when the time comes, who needs them? I had a relatively solitary nursing school experience and it was better that way. May have been nice to have "friends...

I don't know any pediatric nurses that have either one of these designations, but I just passed PED-BC.
I just crammed like I was studying for NCLEX, but focused on infants through adolescence, and passed.
I don't expect any financial gai...
I stand by what I wrote.
It is sad to me, that nurses cannot surmise on their own that different ethnicities may have markings that are not consistent with abuse.
Yes that is sad that I can figure out "blushing/flushing" although I will nev...
This is sad that nurses don't know this. This is indicative of the deficit of cultural competence in American nursing...

2, Yes, you can be certified in both, although it may be redundant, as they may be considered interchangeable. You will just have to pay for both, both the initial certification and the recerts.
3. Both exams websites will direct you to materi...
If you have national certification, you don't worry about the individual states, however as a poster previously mentioned - you need a valid Registered Nursing license in the state that company requires... You need to tackle that first, because my st...
Thank you... I grow tired of people telling me what is or isn't racist. But don't let me ask someone to clearly enunciate, so I understand what is being said ~ I'm a bigger racist than David Duke.
This is so exhausting and thank you for reitera...
Goodness. That therapist needs some therapy and to mind their dingdarn bidness. They are probably jealous of the employment prospects you have (whether you are in the market or not).
Better you than me, and solidifies why I work nights... In p...

This year we all brought stuff. I brought the sides and dessert.
It was nice and made the night go by faster. Times like that make me grateful to be at work on holidays.

Perhaps. Sounds like something I would worry about as a student, but when I got in school, what others did didn't impact me at all... First lesson of being an RN, don't sweat stuff that doesn't impact you, or you'll be worrying about it all.
Peo...
