What are your nursing goals?

This may have been previously discussed, but I am curious about what other students goals are in nursing after receiving the long-awaited license? I'm curious about the specialties that y'all want to go into and/or what further degrees or certifications are planned for the future.

As for me, I am hoping to find a job in a cardiac stepdown or telemetry unit and possibly work into a critical care unit. I would love to eventually become a CNS in the area of cardiac or critical care or maybe even a CRNA someday:Melody:

I want to work in NICU. If not NICU then some sort of critical care. Possibly flight nursing in the future after I'm done with my BSN.

Well I will finish my BSN in May 2010, I KNOW FOREVER AWAY!!! After that I want to get floor experience for 2-3 years, and then go on to grad school to become an NP and possibly obtain an MPH, and then work toward public health nursing or education.....not sure at this point

Specializes in Psych ICU, addictions.

NICU, nursery or pediatrics. No L&D though--I don't want them the minute they come out. I can wait an hour or two :)

I plan to work for a year or so and then go into a RN-BSN program, hopefully paid for by my employer.
