hey everybody;) I'm a third year BSN student. What can I do to become a certified dialysis nurse? Do I need work experience as a RN first? If i do for how long? Is there any new grad programs for dialysis nurses? Any type of advice would be really be helpful thanku.

Since it seems Im stepping on peoples toes by my terminology heres where you can go;) http://www.discovernursing.com Surgical Nursing Nurses in this field provide care and support to patients before, during, and after surgery. Different positions include scrub nurses (who pass sterile instruments and supplies to surgeons), circulating nurses (who work outside the sterile field), and RN first assistants (who deliver direct surgical care to patients). Operating Room Nursing (Perioperative Nursing) Nurses in this field provide care and support to patients before, during, and after surgery. These nurses are responsible for maintaining a sterile environment in the operating room, monitoring the patient during surgery, and coordinating care throughout the process. They are also responsible for making sure the OR team provides the patient with the best care possible. I didnt mean to get anyones panties in a bunch:cheers:

yup i do mean med/surg. As for time, I feel its on my side:up:. I honestly want to start working and getting as much hands on experience in the operating room. So I could see how a surgeon performs as well as myself being able to contribute towards the work:balloons:. Through that, than I can only determine wether or not Im suitable to be a future surgeon. I'm the type of person that is not to keen towards getting into something without knowing its actual experience. And I definitely feel nursing will give me that.(2yrs till grad time) If anyone has any advice. I would certainly appreciate. Thanx
