LTAC nurses must have advanced nursing skills to care for patients with prolonged or incurable illnesses and chronic conditions.

What certifications are commonly held by long-term acute care nurses?

Long-term acute care nurses may hold Basic Life Support (BLS) or Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS), among others.
