I am beginning to look for RN jobs. A hospital I have in mind offers a 12 week Internship that helps ease the transition from the classroom to the floor. There are many internships available. However, I'm not too sure which one would suite me best. I have really liked my rotations in the ER and OR, where you are kept busy and things are more "exciting".
The following is the list of internships. Which one(s) do you feel would be best for me... being that I will be brand new, but at the same time want a position that I won't be bored in (for example: med/surg is very boring to me).
Medical Floor (gen medicine, pulmonary, & step-down learning)
Post-Op
Step-Down/Vasc
Gen Surg Post-Op
Med-Surg & Step-Down Pool
Med-Surg ICU
Neurosciences
Neurotrama ICU
Oncology
PASU
Pulmonary Medicine Care Unit
Trama Care
Thanks! :w00t:

Soulds like you might like Med-Surg ICU, Neurotrauma ICU or Trauma Care.
I'm not sure what PASU is though.
Good luck!

You can't beat critical care for learning new things. The internship they gave me at our hospital was fabulous. I am still learning new things every day, too.
I'm thinking of applying for the trauma care internship.
