Are you asking about med/surg? or the OR? both are different specialties, and have different needs.

I am asking about both and what they entail. From my understanding, med/surg is more bedside nursing with patients who undergo surgery and OR is more assisting with surgery and monitoring the patient during surgery. Thanks much for the information, I really appreciate it,

My best advice would be to look under the two different threads. There are many nurses in both areas that can give you an idea of what their specialty entails.
