Hi all,
I have less then a year as a postpartum nurse. I will be leaving this job in the next few months (end of contract)and I will be looking for a new job soon. I don't really have any real experience other then post-partum, do you think I am nuts to do med-surg?
A little about myself, I do fine at work, not a super fast paced nurse, but I believe I give my patients my best. I did not work right after graduation due to staying home with my family, and lost mostly what skills I have from nursing school. I basically started out new at this postpartum floor. I know that postpartum has a lot less of the skills performed on med-surg. I also deal with an anxiety disorder, not treated, undiagnosed, and feel uncomfortable at work most of the time. Should I just go to something similar or what? There are not a lot of job opportunities where I live. Lot's of suggestions would definitely be appreciated. I am really in a pickle here, desperate, scared of failure, and of being overwhelmed. Thanks!
