My Professional Role and Values
What is the functional difference between a regulatory agency, such as the Connecticut Board of Nursing, and a Professional Nursing Organization, such as ASPAN? The former is the state regulatory agency that a person who after meeting all the requirements, can apply for a nursing license. The latter is a specific organization that focuses on a specific type or filed of nursing. A Professional Nursing Organization can offer continuing education programs, course specific seminars and certification in that specialty. The State Board of Examiners for Nursing have positions appointed by the governor and have advanced degrees in nursing. In ASPAN you voluntarily join and decide how much involvement you desire. Their chairs are voted on, whereas in the state they are appointed by the governor.
They each have nursing websites that one can explore. However the Board of Nursing in Connecticut is on a broader, less specific scale, whereas ASPAN focuses on Perianesthesia Nursing. The Connecticut Board of Nursing addresses licensure verification, renewal, exam information and complaints. They govern the rules applicable to nurses throughout the state. ASPAN governs standards specific to Post Anesthesia Nursing care and concerns. While the Connecticut Board of Nursing licenses the LPNs, RNs and APRNs. The difference is that being licensed allows you to practice your profession, and that certification means you are an expert in your filed. ASPAN provides me with specific standards that should be followed in order to provide the best care to my post-operative patients. The Connecticut Board of Nursing defines the scope of nursing practice in general as it applies within the state .
I thoroughly enjoy my work in the Post Anesthesia Unit at my community hospital. I have been in this particular department for the past 12 years and have grown substantially. I incorporate what I learned in
