Re: Tele/Med-Surg??? Is this the place to start?
Ditto for me! I am considering a med-surg position as a new grad on the floor where I did my last semester of clinical. I thought I wanted to do ICU, but I feel like I may want to do ER or something else now. I feel kind-of confused.
Med-surg seems like a good place to start, because you get a chance to practice a lot of basic skills and see a huge variety of patients. I feel like med-surg would teach me valuable lessons in time management, organization, communicating across disciplines, and various other skills. Ultimately I'll probably take whatever job is offered!
My questions is does med-surg make you more marketable for an ER, ICU or specialty position? or do they typically prefer to have new graduates that they can "train right".
