    rebemomma replied to WorkofHeart8's topic in Ob/Gyn

15. need help choosing first RN job!!

    rebemomma replied to chi town girl's topic in New Nurse

    yeah i know what you mean. Onco would be more fun in an intellectual sense. You get to be on the cutting edge in terms of new proceedures and drugs. I would hate it because of the morbitity of the patients in a unit like that.
