Here at Boston Children's Hospital, we encourage employees to be proactive in learning about changing medicine and important topics related to their employment positions. How do you make sure that your knowledge and certifications, if any, remain current?

"I try to schedule at least two workshops each year that are focused on something within my licensing requirements. A few months ago I attended a workshop on wound management for diabetic patients. It was very informative. I am also a member of some social media groups for nursing education. In those groups, administrators share news and updates regarding new techniques or methods for providing healthcare as they become available."

"I love to read and subscribe to a few different healthcare magazines . I also participate in continuing education classes any time they are offered locally or within my place of employment. With regard to healthcare, I believe we should grow and learn as much as possible each day."
