I have only been a nurse for a little over a year and took the CCRN for the first time about 2 weeks ago and passed with no problem. Everyone on the board is right just use the Pass CCRN CD and Laura disc. Thats all I used and found the test to be fairly easy. The better news is it has really influenced others on our floor to go after it. Many of them have been nurses for years yet are scared to take the test. I am hoping our 24 bed unit will be 90% CCRN certified by this time next year.
