About to start in ED

Specialties Emergency

Published

I am a new nurse with 4 months experience on a cardiac step down floor. I have been looking to leave this floor for a few months due to the backstabbing nature of my co-workers. When I was in school I wanted to work ED to work with pediatric patients as well as adults as my goal is to become a FNP down the road. Well, I got in at a level one trauma hospital. Any suggestions on making this transition? Any readings I should brush up on?

The ESI book is free btw

I can probably afford that one right now then :) I am super excited for this opportunity.

Interdisciplinary communication in the ED is full of **** this! and **** that! Patients ******** about everything too! It is a high pace environment, so just go in ready to learn and shout ****! with them! ER nurses are awesome in my experience. I loved my time there. They are very helpful in my experience (everyone in the ED).
