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.
ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia
Certification does not prepare one for graduate school; however, achieving certification demonstrates
ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia
motivation for achievement and professionalism. Magnet facilities are rated on the number of certified
ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia
nurses; however, that is not the purpose of certification.

meet the patients and familys needs and application of alternative therapies if desired by the patient, but
ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia ia
that is not the primary focus of the model.
