hi. i'm wanting become a pediatric nurse but im not sure what kind of education i have to have. can someone tell me how to go about getting to a ped nurse? do i have to become an rn first then specialize in pediatrics? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
You just go to nursing school - you don't specialize like physicians have to. If you can get a job at a hospital while in nursing school as a tech on a peds unit, that usually gets you in the door for peds nursing.
