that is exactly what i didnt want to hear

OK i thought you were saying that the nurse had to be competent in preforming those skills. My bad, i agree with you that you should be at least be able to handle management of a CT or know how to set up a lavage, oops this tubing is only one way usually doesn't play well with the surgeon on a lavage after all the fluid goes in. management of these is vital. with a proper mentor i think any go getting nurse with a good attitude and a willingness to learn can go to the ER, as far as being the only one there some lonely night that may need a few more certs, and a few more years of experience. sorry puncuation and spelling are my enemy

As a nurse you really think that RSI, Chest tube insertion and peritoneal lavage are within your scope of practice. A poorly equiped rural hospital shouldnt be doing a peritoneal lavage anyway. if they cant do anything with the information that it provides. if there is that much question of injury that pt should be transfered as soon as possible. too much risk in the procedure to be done outside a hospital that has the capability to handle possible complications such as perforated bowel. as far as the original question I feel that ACLS alone isnt enough to be able to handle alot of what comes into a ER. I have my CCRN, CEN, TNCC, ATCN, ACLS, PALS. I work in a high volume level 1 trauma center, and still learn things from nearly every pt I see. they never stop amazing me.

someone thought the gre was not that hard of a test. I thought that it was the most stressful test i ever took. i had to go home after and take a nap. I take tests fast and i was down to the wire on every section. I dont want to freak people out but dont take it lightly, really prepare for it.
