Specializes in Telemetry, LTC, Psych.

Im keeping up with the business and multi-tasking of a tele floor, but I know that I want to work with psych/substance abuse/dual-diagnosis patients. I'm sticking in there for a year and I will attempt to transfer within my employers system to a psych floor. Any further words of advice?

I worked for almost a year as an RN on med/surg tele prior to transferring to the Mental Health and Addictions floor at our hospital. We do dual diagnosis on our unit. We also have an adolescent unit and Dementia unit. I love what I do. It is very challenging but very rewarding.:w00t:
