Practice characteristics of the dual certificant--CPAN/CAPA
1Baccalaureate Program, University of New Hampshire, Durham, USA.
Abstract:
Little information is available regarding the practice of nurses who hold two perianesthesia certification credentials (CPAN/CAPA) and their motivation in achieving a dual certification distinction. Achievement of certification in both areas of perianesthesia nursing is a significant accomplishment. Nurses with dual certification are a valuable asset to the profession, their employer, and the perianesthesia patient. The characteristics of this unique group were surveyed by the American Board of Perianesthesia Nursing Certification, Inc. The findings have implications for nurse managers, educators, and perianesthesia colleagues.
