Mother baby RNC

Published

Has anyone taken the mother baby certification? Is it worthwhile in practice?

I'm certified in maternal newborn nursing. For me it is totally worth it. Gives me validation that I sorta kinda know what I'm doing . The CEUs needed for maintenance also keeps me up on the latest EBP. I did not get a raise though.

How long did you prepare for the test for in terms of formal studying? Did you buy a book? The test is expensive but I'd like to be certified.

I started reading Maternal core curriculum by Matteson when I first started in OB. Two years later I took a 1 day review class and did lots of practice questions .

Thanks, I'll look into this book. I've been doing Mom-Baby nursing for almost 5 years, so hopefully I don't need another 2 years of prep work! lol
