8. ICU in community hospital or Stepdown in academic hospital

   SEWRN replied to SEWRN's topic in Critical

   That is what I focused on--to be a good ICU nurse first before anything else. Fast forward 5 years, I'm accepted to two programs for 2018 that I'm trying to decide between. Didn't think I would make it in either and didn't think I'd have the problem ...
