RN stands for registered nurse. RNs are very different from LPNs. The amount of schooling and education is longer for an RN. RNs usually go through two to four year programs at community colleges and universities. They graduate with a BSN (Bachelor's of Science In Nursing) or an ADN (Associate's Degree In Nursing).
It is important to understand what causes it in your home so you can protect your family from the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning. Never unplug or remove the battery to silence a CO detector or CO alarm. You may go back to sleep and suffer the deadly consequences of carbon monoxide poisoning. At the very least, ventilate the area and change the detector's battery. Always assume the worst for your own safety.
Normal Levels of Carbon Monoxide in a Home. In the U.S., about 170 people die each year from prolonged exposure to carbon monoxide in the home. The levels of carbon monoxide, or CO, in your home will vary if a gas stove is present and properly adjusted, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). If you own a gas stove, the average CO level in your home will range from 5 to 15 parts per million (ppm). If your gas stove is poorly adjusted, the average CO reading is closer to 30 ppm or higher, which can cause dangerous reactions if the problem remains unresolved.
