Core focus: emergency assessment, ACLS/BLS-level response skills, trauma and cardiac acuity, IV access, and calm communication with patients and families. No certified-resource list or costs were supplied in DATA, so no exam fees are listed.

Prepare ED scenarios (chest pain, sepsis, trauma), how you prioritize with multiple unstable patients, and examples of adapting to a new unit on a short local contract. Ask about charting system, ratios, and orientation length.

Strong fit for licensed RNs who thrive in fast ED pace and short-term local contracts rather than permanent staff roles. Weak fit if you need remote work or slow onboarding.
