Now I can join the clique officially..I got a job in a level 4 NICU!! I am currently doing my Leadership Practicum in the same NICU but had interviewed before I started. I love it so far and am very excited. I graduate on July 19th:balloons: , I know that sounds odd but I am in a 13 month Accelerated Program I cannot believe I have achieved so much in a year.I guess after more boards I can officially say "I am proud to be a NICU Nurse!"...but 'til then

BTW,When I started my job as a neonatal care tech the RN who is my preceptor went through an accelerated option program too and I was truly amazed at how much people in accelerated option programs have to do in so little time.
