I'm not sure if I'm asking for advise or just venting but a recent interaction with a man, relationship is becoming more serious and grounded with time may be taking me up to North East Texas. I'm a city nurse from the large Houston Metro area. I've only ever worked in a teaching facility with tons of residents and at level one trauma centers.
I am honestly terrified of what I'll encounter at smaller community hospitals. 3:1 ratios? Lower acuity? No learning opportunities????
These decisions are difficult and I truly care for this man but I want to be somewhere where I will succeed and be happy. I am a career man.
Any recommendations on North East TX hospitals? Longview TX/Tyler TX/Nacogdoches TX????
what hospitals do I stay away from?
as much as I love my career and my current job I also am willing to make it work with this person.
fyi I work ICU and would like to remain in ICU for right now... I will not work medsurg
I am open to OR/PACU/Cath Lab...
