Certified Pediatric Nurse

I am very lucky to work in a hospital that supports their staff obtaining certifications.

Last summer I was lucky enough to take & pass my certification in Case Management (CCM) which was paid for by my employer. (was very worried I failed the exam)

Then last Monday I took my chances at the exam to become a certified Pediatric Nurse. I found out today I PASSED.. YAHOO for me.. (was just unsure how I did)

Being able to sign up for exams without having to put out the money upfront makes things a lot easier. Luckily for me I haven't had to figure out what happens if I failed.

Even thought I don't have my degree in nursing I now have: RN, CCM, CPN after my name. Hopefully someday before my eldest hits college I'll have my masters in nursing started & completed.
