Years ago, I took Dr. Laura Gasparis Vonfrolio's 2-day live CCRN review.
She was absolutely AWESOME!
I'm not sure if she still teach the course, she is fun, dynamic, and knows how to explain difficult concepts into a fun, memorable ways.
Good luck to you,
Ellen
Just wanted to say thanks for all the suggestions. I used both and as well as AACN core review book. All put together helped a ton. I am proud to say that I passed the CCRN exam today!!!!!! What a feeling!!!!! Thanks again everybody!!!

I used the PASS CCRN and Laura Gasparis CD's they really helped, but what helped the most was the PASS CCRN questions that came on the disc. A week before the test I paid to take the sample test from AMP, the people that provide the testing. I actually got three questions verbatim from that test, and about seven from the pass CCRN. The test is not as hard as everyone thinks; have the battle is reading the question. Good luck to anyone interested in taking it!

I work in the ER and in am CEN certified. I have never worked a shift in the ICU, but i am also CCRN certified. I found the "pass ccrn" book useful.If you know your patho, then you should be fine, as the ccrn is basically a detailed pathophysiology test.

I'm studying for CCRN, currently using PASS CCRN and Laura G CDs. BUT does anyone have any suggestions for studying hemodynamics? The pacep.org site is no longer available. Also, any good podcasts out there? I have a LONG commute and like podcasts for extra learnin'.
Many thanks for any suggestions!!
