CPAN Certification Review


I have been working in the PACU for a little over 2 years. I would like to take my certification test in the fall. Does anyone have any advice on the best way to study for the exam. I have the "Core Curriculum" book by ASPAN. Is there any other study guides or online study course that anyone knows of or would suggest?

Thanks in advance for all advice.

Default Re: CPAN Certification Review
I am looking into getting my certification as well. I have the book you mentioned (which is obviously HUGE and would be hard to read the whole thing . Others who have taken it have suggested getting a book with practice questions in it. I bought one that goes right along with the Core Curriculum book that i have looked over and i think it will be helpful, also put out by ASPAN. Its called "Certification Review for PeriAnesthesia Nursing" by Barbara Putrycus & Jacqueline Ross
