MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment

2. A nurse has been working as a staff nurse in the surgical intensive care unit for 2 years and is interested in
certification. Which credential would be most applicable for her to seek?

a. ACNPC

b. CCNS

c. CCRN

d. PCCN

CORRECT ANSWER: C

The CCRN certification is appropriate for nurses in bedside practice who care for critically ill patients. The ACNPC
certification is for acute care nurse practitioners. The CCNS certification is for critical care clinical nurse specialists.
The PCCN certification is for staff nurses working in progressive care, intermediate care, or step-down unit settings.

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.
Fr




d. validate knowledge of critical care nursing.
an




CORRECT ANSWER: D

Certification assists in validating knowledge of the field, promotes excellence in the profession, and helps nurses to
kl




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.
yn




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
e




the purpose of certification.
