What classes do u take in order to become an ER Nurse.Or do u just need to be a Registered Nurse?

Question:I don't know if u just need to be a registered nurse to work in the ER or do you need a special training for it. Help!

Answers:
You need your RN degree. Once you have your RN a hospitial will hire you into a training program for ER nurses. So, in other words, once you are an RN, the hospital will train you.

While you are in school, use your elective clinical time and spend it in an ER.
it depends where you live. ask @ your local community college, they will help. they might even offer an RN prorgram.
during nursing school you'll do rotations in different department and get some basic training there. I think when you work in the ER just like any other job they start you off with more basic stuff and you can learn as you go. My Brother in law is an ER nurse. He started working in the ER straight out of school.
