I am a junior nursing student in a 4 year BSN program and am looking to get a nurse externship for the summer. I am interested in working in postpartum/NICU after I graduate. I'm debating whether I should get an externship in postpartum/NICU or go for a more general one like med surg or even the ER. I've heard its suggested that its good to have general med surg experience, particularly before you specialize, so I'm not sure which one I would benefit more from. Thanks!
