Re: How To Become an Emergency Nurse

Here is another question I have for the pre-requisites. So say I have my BSN or ADN. I know I then go to nursing school but for the Pre requisites do I need to have the undergraduates or Graduates? If undergraduates do I need to go back to highschool? Like say for example I need chemistry or Calc.? also which classes should I take in nursing school is there just a ER class?

Thanks ahead of time!!!

Re: How To Become an Emergency Nurse

Thanks for choosing ER Nursing (although this could change)

1. Ask your guidance counseler to 'shadow' and ER nurse.
2. Sign up to get your nursing degree - I highly recommend a BSN program while you're young!!
3. Graduate and taking the nursing boards, preferable in a compact state, find us what this is before you take the boards.
4. Spend one year in med/surg/telemetry and one year in ICU
5. Get a great job in any ER (with this background they will love you!)
6. See you in six years, we'll be waiting with bells on!
