Certified to Make a Difference

"I pursued the ACM-RN certification because I wanted to be the best I could be for my patients. Throughout my nursing career, I’ve explored many paths, but case management is where I truly found my passion and purpose. This role allows me to make a meaningful difference every single day, and certification was a way to deepen my expertise. My advice is simple—certification matters most when you use it to genuinely enhance the lives of the people you care for." 

— Victoria Grospe-Deras, BSN, RN, ACM-RN, RR Medicine Case Manager

 "I chose to pursue the CMGT-BC because I wanted a certification created specifically for nurse case managers. It validates our unique skill set and the specialized knowledge we bring to coordinating complex care. For me, this certification is a way to strengthen my practice and advocate for the vital role nurse case managers play in improving patient outcomes." 

— Claire Anne Ruhlow, BSN, RN, CMGT-BC, RR Medicine Case Manager

"I believe in continuous growth because it helps us build credibility and sharpen our skills as case managers. Pursuing my CCM certification allowed me to validate what I know, stay current with best practices, and ensure I’m providing patient-centered care while advocating for patients and their families. For me, certification is more than a personal milestone—it’s about elevating our profession and showing how we combine compassion with smart thinking to make a meaningful difference in every patient’s journey." 

— Eloisa Ann Del Rosario, BSN, RN, CCM, SMH Case Manager

“I chose to pursue my CCM certification to continue growing as a professional and to ensure I provide the highest standard of care for the patients and families I serve. I was inspired by seeing firsthand how powerful strong case management can be—guiding people through complex healthcare systems with compassion, advocacy, and clarity. To other nurse case managers considering certification, my advice is to go for it. The process may feel daunting, but it is worth the investment. Certification not only validates your expertise, it also opens doors to new opportunities and strengthens your confidence in the role. Trust in your experience. You are more prepared than you think."
