a. American Association of Critical-Care Nurses

b. American Heart Association

c. American Nurses Association

d. Society of Critical Care

Medicine


ANS: A

The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses is the specialty organization that supports
and represents critical care nurses. The American Heart Association supports cardiovascular
initiatives. The American Nurses Association supports all nurses. The Society of Critical Care
Medicine represents the multiprofessional critical care team under the direction of an
intensivist.

is interested in certification. Which credential would be most applicable for her to seek?

a. ACNPC

b. CCNS

c. CCRN

d. PCCN


ANS: C

The CCRN certification is appropriate for nurses in bedside practice who care for critically ill

3. The main purpose of certification is to:

a. assure the consumer that you will not make a mistake.

b. prepare for graduate school.

c. promote magnet status for your facility.

d. validate knowledge of critical care nursing.


ANS: D

Certification assists in validating knowledge of the field, promotes excellence in the
profession, and helps nurses to maintain their knowledge of critical care nursing. Certification
helps to assure the consumer that the nurse has a minimum level of knowledge; however, it does
not ensure that care will be mistake-free.
Certification does not prepare one for graduate school; however, achieving certification
demonstrates motivation for achievement and professionalism. Magnet facilities are rated on the
number of certified nurses; however, that is not the purpose of certification.

The synergy model of practice states that the needs of patients and families influence and drive
competencies of nurses. Nursing practice based on the synergy model would involve tailored
visiting to meet the patients and familys needs and application of alternative therapies if desired
