      Mother Baby Unit

I'm a certified nursing assistant, and I'm looking to gain some experience in the field before starting nursing school in the fall. What unit do you think would give my the most experience: Burn Unit or Mother Baby. The burn unit participates in and inpatient and outpatient care, and consists of and adult and pediatric unit. The Mother Baby is a postpartum unit in which mother and baby reside after birth. I really do love babies, but I know in order to become a good nurse, I need to be well rounded.

Thanks in advance

I would pick mother baby.... You seem like you actually would enjoy that. If you want to work in nicu, this would be away better fit. Don't pick the job you don't want just because you think it will make you well rounded. IMO, being an aide doesn't teach you how to be a nurse.
