Nursing professionals may find it handy to have their resumes up to date at all times as it allows them to quickly and accurately apply for new positions. A well-crafted resume also gives employers and recruiters an overview of the nurse's experience and skills.
Nurses can use their COVID-19 Test Results credential to prove their ability to administer tests, evaluate and interpret the results, and help patients understand their test results and follow-up treatments. This would be beneficial to both the care team and the patient.
Government-issued ID could help nursing professionals appear more professional and trustworthy to their patients and employers and make it easier for them to be identified in medical settings. It can also help verify credentials and prevent identity theft.
Healthcare facilities might need their nursing professionals to have the Flu Vaccine to help ensure their patients receive optimal care and protect them from potential illnesses that can spread in public settings. This is especially important for elderly patients or those with weakened immune systems.
BLS training equips individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to provide life-saving treatments in an emergency such as performing CPR, controlling bleeding, and using an automated external defibrillator (AED). It is a crucial skill to possess in order to save a person's life in an emergency.
Healthcare facilities may need their nursing professionals to have CPR and first aid credentials to ensure the safety of their staff and patients in case of medical emergencies. CPR and first aid can help stabilize a patient before medical help arrives.
Hep B is a serious virus, and nurses need to be sure they are not at risk of contracting it or exposing other patients to it. Immunization, titer testing, and Declination credentials help to protect both the nurse and the patient.
Having MMR | 2 immunization or 1 titer may be necessary when looking for jobs as a nursing professional as some employers may require employees to be fully immunized against measles, mumps and rubella, as part of their health and safety policy.
Tdap protects against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis and is a one-time vaccination that provides long-term protection for up to 10 years. This allows nursing professionals to ensure their immunity from these illnesses and helps to keep vulnerable patients safe.
Varicella immunizations or a titer may be required for a job to ensure the employee and other co-workers are protected against the highly infectious disease, which can cause serious illness and complications if contracted.
Healthcare facilities might need their nursing professionals to have the COVID-19 Vaccine Card to ensure the safety of both patients and staff, demonstrate compliance and prevention methods, as well as increase public trust in the facility and its workers.
