Currently am in peds, but am going to go to ICU in the summer. I am also trying to go for my medic licenses as to eventually work my way into flight nurse. Although retiring in the pacu would be nice as well.....

Working in a neuro ICU right out of school - hoping to go to NICU/PICU after I finish my BSN or two years in the NTICU, whichever comes first!

Stepped out of my comfort zone, which is ED - but I'll float every chance I get!

Re: Polling our male nurses: What area of nursing are you currently in right now?

In my 27 plus years I have mainly worked Critical Care and ER. I still do a little ER on my weekends off. But after being sold 5 times, being treated like chattel by various hospital corporations and seeing patient care go by the wayside in favor of the almighty dollar, I got out. I have spent the last 8 years working for the Fire Department where patient care, not profit comes first. I teach Paramedics and EMTs, liason with the hospitals and transport companies, work with state and local authorities to define scope of practice, and multiple other things. My experience is valued, my bosses regularly compliment and thank me for my work, I can work from home, punch no clock, have covered parking, weekends and holidays off, and if I even contemplate a 12 hour shift, someone straightens me out quick. And yes, I do go out with the firefighter medics and run calls etc. Can anyone tell me why I would even consider going back to the hospital routine? Anyone out there doing the same or similar work?
