Re: I want to be a flight nurse, looking for advice
No, it's not too specialized.
I personally suggest that you skip out entirely on an ED position, especially since you worked as a paramedic. I was hired as a flight nurse with zero ED experience, and I was also a paramedic for six years prior. My speciality was adult CT-ICU, and we hired nurses from the burn ICU.
As long as you get exposure to high alert medications (pressors), and invasive monitoring (art lines, Swans), that should help you out.
