On behalf of the American Burn Association (电竞赚钱(南昌)手机版抽注下载v4.9版), we are excited to announce a partnership with the Board of Certification of Emergency Nurses (BCEN) that will allow nurses to achieve certification in the specialty of burn nursing.
BCEN will be responsible for writing and administering the exam, which will be offered to 电竞赚钱(南昌)手机版抽注下载v4.9版 members at a discounted rate in 2-3 years. The 电竞赚钱(南昌)手机版抽注下载v4.9版 will provide content expertise, create reference materials, and develop a catalog of educational offerings to aid in exam preparation. We are already in the process of drafting a Core Curriculum titled, Burn Nursing: From Injury Prevention to Rehabilitation , which will be one of the primary resources for the creation of exam content.
This offering is the result of a multi-year effort by the 电竞赚钱(南昌)手机版抽注下载v4.9版 Nursing Professional Certification Committee. We are so grateful for all the volunteers that have helped to elevate the specialty of burn nursing and address the needs of our nurse members.
