Nursing Student Considering NICU - Page 2
Register Today!- Jun 4, '12 by EarthhAngel2013I would love to work in a NICU. However, our school doesn't have a whole lot of actual NICU specialties available. I'm going to school in Kaufman Texas, and the closest I got to a "NICU" setting 'not' was newborn nursery, L & D, and Post Partum. How on earth would I even get my foot in the door, when I've never been or at least haven't yet been exposed to a NICU setting???Last edit by EarthhAngel2013 on Jun 4, '12 : Reason: *wanted to add in more*
- Jun 5, '12 by EarthhAngel2013Also do you think it is a good starting point for a new grad straight outta school?
- Jun 10, '12 by lav42788Thank goodness I found this board. I am also a nursing student looking to pursue NICU. I was just wondering is there anything that I can do in school to help gear me to going into this field of nursing? Also when looking for a job in NICU would it also be helpful to add in that I am a NICU parent (oldest son 28 weeks, youngest 35 weeks)?I don't know if that experience would help? Thanks for any input! I really appreciate it!
