Are There Specific Requirements for Specialized Nursing Fields?
Specialized nursing fields, such as pediatric nursing, oncology nursing, and critical care nursing, often require additional training and certification. For instance, a pediatric nurse might need to complete a certification from the Pediatric Nursing Certification Board (PNCB), while an oncology nurse might require certification from the Oncology Nursing Certification Corporation (ONCC). These certifications typically require passing an exam and meeting specific clinical practice requirements.
