Last year, MSNCB revamped its FailSafe program to better serve medical-surgical nurses that want to pursue certification. This program allows eligible nurses at participating facilities to apply for any MSNCB certification exam twice within a 12-month period while only paying for the first attempt. This means more opportunities for certification and less stress about additional exam costs. Learn more: https://hubs.la/Q03c4dJK0
