Career in the ICU

Published

Hi Nurses!

I will be transitioning to the ICU (yay!!) and was wondering what advanced practice degrees/ certifications one can get while in the ICU.

NOTE: Please please please do not say CRNA (i have zero interest in that path :headphone:)

I was thinking in the direction of a CNS v/s APRN etc? I did a cursory google search however, I wanted to know how in your practice, you have seen the role of the critical care nurse practitioner play out
