. Y . Y .Y . Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y




assure the consumer that thenurse has a minimum level of knowledge; however, it does not ensure that
.Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y . Y .Y .Y . Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y




care will be mistake- free.

Certification does not prepare one for graduate school; however, achieving certification demonstrates
. Y . Y . Y . Y .Y . Y . Y . Y . Y . Y .Y




motivation for achievement and professionalism. Magnet facilities are rated on the number of certified
.Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y .Y




nurses;however, that is not the purpose of certification.
