- Jan 16, '12 by little starYes, I can totally relate. I was forty before I left the OR to go into the ICU. It is possible. However, my best experience and acceptance came when applying to a large teaching facility. Try applying to a teaching hospital where you can get the experience and knowledge base that you will need in order to transition successfully.
Good Luck! -
