Where would your least favorite area to work be?

I picked LTC cuz it was the closest to geriatrics.

There's just something about taking care of the elderly on a constant basis tha kinda breaks me.

Hoping to get into NICU. I'm with prmenrs..."nothing over 15lbs".

I worked on the PWS unit for like 2 yrs. You get used to it. They are really manipulative though. But it is definitely a specialty and not for everyone!

My least favorite would be peds...I don't do babies LOL

My LOVE in life? Psych! The more off the wall, violent, and psychotic, the better!!

Peds....why? the parents! & sexually abused or abused children....it makes me want to hurt people.
OB/L&D.....way too needy!
ER now your talking!

Labor and Delivery. I cant deal with women and their babies. A baby in distress would just be too nerve racking!!!!!!!!!! Not to mention its a whole different language!

Whats a PWS unit???

Prader-Willi Syndrome, I believe.

There are LTC facilities whose clientele is composed entirely of people with this disorder.

I picked OR because my back can't handle standing in one place for that long. I need to be moving around. The others, well, I'd rather not but I could deal with them. There really wasn't any rotation in school that I disliked, but I very much prefer teaching and illness prevention, so I'll stick to school nursing!

med surg! too many patients, too many *talking* patients, too many family members, they want out of bed, they all eat, they all use a call light --- no thank you! too much running! no breaks!

give me intubated, sedated, gtts, limited visiting and sick!!! just one or two pts to focus on and really know in and out!

I picked psych. I deal with mentally challenged people with psych issues on a daily basis, I don't want to do it as my job too. It was a toss up between this and LTC with Med/Surg coming 3rd.
