SPECIALIZATION
The National Association of Clinical Nurse
Specialists and the American Nurses
Association agree in defining specialization
as a delimited or concentrated area of expert
clinical practice with focused knowledge and
competencies. The specialty area may be
broadly or narrowly defined; the area may be
well established or emerging.

WHY WE NEED SPECIALIZATION?
Political, economical and social changes which are continuously occurring in today's society have a decisive influence on health.
Of particular importance are those changes related to the aging of the population, morbidity and the prevalence of chronic diseases which create significant health problems which in turn present significant challenges to curative type medicine.
Scientific and technological advances permit a higher degree of sophistication for treatments, increasing life expectancy while at the same time posing questions which must be answered.

CERTIFICATION
Certification is a process by which a nongovernmental
agency validates, based upon predetermined standards,
an individual nurse’s qualifications for practice in a
defined functional or clinical area of nursing.
Most certification programs are created, sponsored or
affiliated with professional associations and
organizations interested in raising standards.
Certifications are earned through an assessment
process and, in general, must be renewed periodically.
Certification credentials are nationally recognized and
portable, meaning the credential is accepted from one
hospital to another. (AACN)
