Hello. I'm a nurse of four years & my goal for the future is to do travel nursing. My plan is to collect a few certifications which I understand is more helpful than a BSN(although I have that too). If this is true, how so? I currently have my TNCC & I'm working on my CCRN. Also, what advise can the travel community give to help my prepare for this future endeavor?

What is your specialty? CCRN and TNCC are not usually done together that I can think of.
Hello NedRN. I work in a surgical/trauma ICU & TNCC is a requirement for the trauma side of my department.
Besides the BLS/ACLS you already have and the CCRN you are getting, I can't think of anything else you will find helpful. Perhaps some medical ICU experience.
I work in a Level One, 950 bed hospital in a 29 bed unit. We get a little of everything in the STICU; whether we want it or not! LoL
