ABCM has a review course and I have heard great things about it. I am currently waiting to hear back on my approval to test so I can purchase the study program and test. If you complete the study course you get 12 CEs I am including the link so you can see the information straight from ABCM. https://www.abcmcertification.com/cvrn-course.html

I tested positive 9 days ago for Covid19. What started with a headache and mild sore throat at the start of my shift escalated to a fever of 103.1 by 0100. I had a pt on CRRT and we had to do some moving so someone could take my 1-to-1 ( the nurse I gave report to has since tested positive, despite me having an n95 on that night and distancing for report). That same morning I was tested two different times (second time was because I was unsure of the efficacy of first test). The first test was negative, a couple of hours later I get a call from the health department to inform me of my positive status. I am doing much better, the headache, fever, chills, body aches, and soar throat have lessened . I am taking this time to read and rest. *I am curious, what are other hospitals saying about when you can come back to work. My job called me the other day to tell me I could come back after 10 days of being at home. Some of my coworkers are uncomfortable with that, the policy was changed recently (within the last week). Before you had to have two negative tests before being allowed to come back.

Hey everyone. I’ve been working as a critical care nurse for a bit over a year now and would like to start working towards adding to my credentials. Is starting with the TCRN a bad idea? I’ve been reading over the thread and the Jeff Solheim review course seems to be the most popular, but on facebook I’ve seen people talking about the Pam Bartley review program. Not sure which I should go with. Any tips or suggestions? -JS
