Pediatric RN Education and Skills
Your journey to become a pediatric RN begins with either an associate degree in nursing (ADN) or a bachelor’s of science in nursing (BSN) obtained from an accredited nursing program. Then you must pass the NCLEX-RN exam to receive your registered nurse license. It’s possible to be hired for entry-level pediatric RN positions — it’s not always necessary to have pediatric experience in order to work in this specialty area.
Once you have 1,800 pediatric clinical hours in the past two years or 3,000 pediatric clinical hours in the past five years, you may register for the Certified Pediatric Nurse (CPN) exam. Not only can this certification increase your skills, it can also give you an advantage when you’re job searching.
Pediatric RN Resume and Cover Letter
Tailoring your pediatric nurse resume to an individual job posting can help show an employer that your skills align with the requirements of the position. For example, if a posting mentions that the facility’s most common admitting diagnoses include asthma, RSV, and seizures, your resume should feature any experience you have treating patients with those conditions.
Use your cover letter to talk about the value that you’d bring to the team. You might write about how you’re known for establishing excellent rapport with patients and families, acting as a role model for younger nurses, or staying calm in emergency situations.
