The PACU is a type of critical care unit where nurses and other medical professionals observe patients who are waking up from anesthesia. PACU nurses have many responsibilities, including the continuous monitoring of vital signs.

How does having a Certified Ambulatory Perianesthesia nurse (CAPA) increase my value as a PACU nurse job candidate?

Having a Certified Ambulatory Perianesthesia nurse (CAPA) validates your knowledge and skills as a PACU nurse and your dedication to continuing your education in your chosen field. All of which makes you a more desirable job candidate to healthcare employers.
