Re: New certification

[ccavrn]

Leigh Ann, Heather, etc---can we just be friends?  I am not trying to be confrontational, just give my point of view. Maybe as a hospital IV nurse, it would mean something to you to see a certification of some sort from a sales rep, but as a sales rep, I know that my company would not pay for it, nor would it mean anything to them if I got it on my own.  What matters is--am I making my numbers?...I am just trying to stimulate discussion, and was not expecting such defensive responses.  Realize that every nurse, AVA member, etc has their own set of views and experiences, and they may not be the same as yours.  We all do not have the luxury of working for a progressive, nurse run, hospital based PICC team, or whatever the perfect world may be.
