    I just passed my CEN yesterday. I've been an R.N. for a year and work at a Trauma 1 center for an unserved population. I used Sheehy's Manual of Emergency Nursing as my review guide and that was my only book. I also did the practice exams online from...
  12. Passed the CEN! Yay! Some thoughts

    I just took the BCEN pre-exam test to see how I would do. I've been an E.R. nurse for exactly 1 year at a Trauma 1 center in an underserved area. I got 78% which I was a little shocked at since I thought I was going to fail. Im going to use Mark Bosw...

  14. LA county Relief nurse 2013

    ER took me less than a month for everything. I applied the day the position opened up though. If you can handle a fast pace ( can be extremely stressful at times) and want to do trauma, I would say go to ER. I like the rush. The training for ER is on...

  19. ER trauma 1 per diem vs. ER trauma 2 full time.

    Hi Everyone! Thanks for all your input and advice :). I made a mistake saying its a "per diem" position in my previous posts. It's a part time position. I have decided to take the part-time 2 x a week minimum position at the Trauma 1 center. I spoke ...
  20. ER trauma 1 per diem vs. ER trauma 2 full time.

    Its a minimum of 2 times a week, but most nurses are working 32-40hours, just without benefits. Pay is really good. I guess i should ask NM when i can be hired full time. Its not per diem, my mistake, its a part time Relief Nurse.
