I did the Mosby one and found it good. Good luck - if you have a few years experience, you'll do just fine!

I, too, am preparing to take the exam. I hope the review course I am going to is going to help. I have another question concerning certifications and education in general. Does your facility pay or are you on your own. I, for one, am on my own. I found out today that my hospital won't pay for the review course because it is in another state and they aren't going to pay for the certification because there isnt a class before the test. :o

Our hospital doesn't pay for the test per se...but if you belong to ENA, its cheaper, plus if you take it and pass it my hospital gives you a $500 bonus/year to maintain it...

I used Emergency Nursing Examination Review.

by Joanne Noone, Laura Gasparis Vonfrolio

she has both the review book and tapes. I used audio tapes

they were Great and she is very funny to listen to. Try

them I think you will agree.
