Are you required to have NRP or at least PALS Certification?

Not all our ED RNs have PALS! The NRP I understand, but PALS? :uhoh21:

Who here doesn't have PALS? Does anyone have NRP?

[Dixielee, BSN, RN]

:rotfl: Dawngloves, the thought of that makes me go AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, as I run thru the room pulling my hair out! Thank God we all like different things. My "experience" in L&D, outside of school was giving birth to my own children....under very controlled situations thank you!

We are required to have ACLS, PALS, and TNCC

[needsmore$]

we require pals, acls. encouraged to be cen within 2 yrs of hire. recommended tncc, enpc. many nurses taking these.

i personally enjoyed nrp- made me feel more confident w/ the neonatal assessment/intervention until ldrp shows up--

if your hospital does not have a maternity/ldrp unit- then nrp would be very beneficial as well- more in depth then the enpc/pals modules.
