Board Certified in Ambulatory care nursing?

Specialties Ambulatory

Published

I was reading a thread about certification and wondered if anyone was certified in Ambulatory Care Nursing. I would like to know more about what topics were covered.............specifically, is the material pertinent to Family Practice Office Nursing or something different entirely?

I actually took the ambulatory certification exam last Oct. Some of it is common sense (ie ambulatory care standards, nursing standard and general clinical knowledge). However 25% of the questions focused on nursing research, outcomes and manage care issues, which I wasn't quite expecting. Nevertheless, I managed to do well on the exam. You may want to find out if you are qualified for a salary increase , once becoming certified. Unfortunately

my institution does not offer an incentives.

The material on the exam is family practice and primary care oriented.

I will be taking the exam October 05. Can you give some specific examples

focusing on the areas you mentioned. Congratulation. Thank You
