I start clinicals this fall ( )and have options as to which area hospital to learn at. Each area hospital is known for one thing or another.
So, my questions are: For a student, does it matter where you got your in-school training? I mean, should I just go to the hospital closest to me for convenience or should I make the 40 min extra drive effort for the more technologically advanced and higher-esteemed hospital in the area?
Do future empolyers pay any attention to which hospitals you learned at (if you had a choice)?
A sidenote to the issue is the hospital that is further away is the nation's leading birthing hospital....I want to work there in L&D after graduation...do school clinicals actually give you an opportunity to make impressions on people who hire at hospitals?
Wow. Little did I realize how many questions I have. Open the flood gates....:chuckle
Thanks for any help anyone can give me!
