As some of you already know, from my other postings, I just graduated in May. Many of my class went into specialties such as OB, ER, ICU, Peds, and like myself - OR.
At this time, it is very easy for a new grad to start right away in the specialty of their choice like I have done. I'm curious what all of you want to do when you get out of school. Now, I know that some of you are just starting your first semester, and some are finishing your last (yippee!!) so not all of you have made up your minds quite yet. That's OK. What would be your absolute favorite area right now??
I guess I would have to say that I am grown up, at least, emotionally. As far as a career/specialty, I am in bridge program and will graduate with an MSN focusing in acute care. I will take the NCLEX as part of my program. I hope to work as a nurse practitioner with a cardiology group when I graduate. NO BABIES FOR ME!
like the rest of my fellow students i would enjoy to do pediatrics of labor and delivery. but i have been told to do med surg first to become an expert with the basic skills and then go into peds. i have no idea i guess i'll just find a job wherever i can get one. i know i do not want to do psychiatric nursing that is for sure!
Well, I've been an EMT for 13 years, so obviously I have kind of a soft spot for ER work.. . I guess I'd like to do ER for awhile, then I'm going to get my FNP and open a combination practice/sick child day care (WAY too little of THAT out there!). Anybody in KY need a job in, oh, 5 yrs, look me up
