Pediatrics, neonatal or OB. Or anything to do with kids. ;-) :dncgbby:
if there is going to be any Whining and crying ...its going to me from me! I don't do kids! when I worked med peds....I would play *lets make a deal* when I got my assignment.... I would trade off a crazy old dementia patient for a kid any day!

I could never do NICU or PICU. Critically ill kids make me sad.........in fact, I'm more apt to turn into a basket case than the parents!
I also wouldn't want to work in Psych or corrections---both populations scare me.
On the other hand, I love LTC and geriatric patients, so I guess I'm a little weird LOL.

Lol, well I will take all your Peds/NICU patients and give you all my adult patients. I do not care for adult nursing at all. But considering i have a Bachelor's degree in Child Development peds is a natural thing for me.
I could not work in corrections.... wouldn't mind it, but the hubby is a corr officer... and he doesn't want me at his facility! he said even if a nurse uses her maden name on her tag, somehow the inmates find out that they have a guard husband, and that isnt' good.

LTC, Geriatrics. I am a fixer. while there are moments in my LTC clinicals for my CNA that warm my heart I have a strong need to be a part of "fixing" people. when I worked in computers I hated teaching people or doing maintenance I needed something broken to repair. Its already going to frustrate me enough that you can't fix stupid and its everywhere! at least once I get to CRNA they will be unconcious! LOL!

To me...these nurses are the most amazing on the planet....and they do what I not only couldn't do, but am not brave enough to even stomach.

OB or L&D, just leave me to my med-surg and I'll be just fine!
