Help me decide on which offer to take!! Please!!

I’ve just been officially offered two ICU positions. One is an adult med/surg ICU with an occasional pediatric ICU patient I’d be ACLS and PALS certified and we even have CRRT on that floor. The other is a cardiac neuro ICU (CNICU) it’s actually being transformed into the designated covid unit for now but still a lot of cardiac neuro ICU patients. My dream is to eventually be a CRNA once I get some more experience especially now that it’s ICU. Which job would be better for me to take??

    I think you are looking for both the most varied experiences and the most support so I would go with med/surg ICU. Less Covid patients is an added perk.

    Update: I picked the cardiac neuro ICU and I picked so wrong. Since I started and covid, covid is confined on 3 of our med/surg floors instead of the ICU’s and ICU RNs are being pulled to those units. The cardiac neuro ICU is no longer receiving critically ill patients and when it does it goes to a nurse with many years experience. Our most critical patients go to the medical ICU and they’re all intubated and sedated. My unit they walk talk and really don’t require an ICU bed any longer. I was taught all of the ICU skills but I never get to utilize or perform them. I’m so burnt out because I hate my job. What should I do?
