LPN role in ACC, and so confused...

Hello all! I'm a new graduate waiting to take my NClex PN and I am really confused! HELP! I interviewed with a nursing home/rehab center, a rehab/skilled nursing center, and now a hospital that I applied to would like to interview me for a position in their ACC unit. I spent one day there during my clinicals and spent the time trying to put in IV's, so I really don't feel like I got a good grasp of the duties of an LPN in ACC. Can anyone tell me what an LPN does where you work? Also, I already accepted a position in the rehab/skilled nursing facility that made an offer but haven't gone to orientation yet. I am not sure how nice it would be to go to orientation and then interview at the hospital but I REALLY want to be in the hospital. If I were to not get the job at the hospital, it's nice to have this job, though. OY! I don't know what to do. I had no clue that this would all be happening so fast and all at once! Anyone have any job hunting/choosing advice for a new grad?

Personally I would go with the hospital position, if I could get it.

What is ACC? Is it Advanced Cardiac Care or something like that?

Man, if it was, I'd go with that...excuse the pun....in a heartbeat.

Thanks for the advice LPN1974. :) ACC stands for Ambulatory Care Center. I have set up my appointment with the hospital and am going to inquire about a PRN position there. I still would like to hear from anyone with ACC experience on the role of the LPN there?
