LTC to Med/Surg

Yeah that is true about the critical care experience needed for a CRNA program, but I feel I would best be prepared for an ICU position AFTER working Med/Surg.

Jo Dirt I think you answered one of my questions about me getting enough orientation time on the floor when entering Med/Surg after being in LTC. I'd be happy to be considered a new grad!! That means more orientation time!

So I guess what I'm going to do is apply both at nursing homes and hospitals, and whoever calls me first, that's where I'll go. If I get hired at a nursing home though, I'll still be applying at area hospitals for any open position, until I can transfer (hopefully after just six months) to Med/Surg, then after a year, move to some type of critical care unit. I still have time seeing as though I still have a year for my bachelor's.

Thanx all!!!!
