Registered nurses play a crucial role in promoting and maintaining client health across various life stages in diverse healthcare settings. This necessitates a comprehensive understanding of normal growth and development throughout the lifespan, including aspects of normal childbearing, with a focus on pregnancy, fetal development, and labor and delivery. Equally important is the ability to identify and manage maternal complications, such as pregnancy loss, placental disorders, and issues arising during pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period. Integrating age-appropriate immunizations, health screenings, and strategies for reducing or ceasing high-risk behaviors into clinical practice and nursing care plans is also vital.

This Credential equips learners with the aforementioned knowledge and skills, fostering proficiency essential for success in the NCLEX examination and in clinical practice.
