Dream job offer--pediatric burns!!!

Congratulations! You are saint to want to work with kiddie burn patients!

i was offered a job at shriner's and inevitably declined it.
it was my dh who talked me out of it as i just couldn't handle anticipating the suffering, the crying, the painful dsg changes....it does indeed, take a special type of person to be able to deal with this.

so with that said, congratulations; i'm sure you'll do wonderfully.
i too love children- just can't see them suffer.
but then again, as a hospice nurse, there are many who could not assist in helping someone die.
so i do think we end up where we fit best.

much luck to you!

Andrea,

Can I get an update please? I am about to graduate from a nursing program and got a call today from Shriner's Hospital about a PICU position that I applied for. I meet with them next Thursday. So excited/nervous.

Thank you,
Michele

I did my senior role transition at Shriners. It was the best experience of my life. If I hadn't moved right after graduation I would have done everything in my power to get a job there. Good luck to you!!
