Does anyone know exactly what this area entails? Is the nurse to patient ratio the same as in other ICU's? Would this be a good area to start in? Any help would be appreciated

The ratios should be the same. The difference is there are both medical and surgical patients in the same unit. The usually happens in smaller hospitals. I think it would be a great learning experience.
