Moving on...

Hello all, I am a RN that graduated spring of 2012. I got my first nsg job at a LTC facility on the rehab hall in October 2012. It wasn't what I wanted, but hey it was a job and I would get experience to do what I really wanted. Over time I have grown to love LTC and "my" rehab hall. But sometimes I feel torn. I long for that acute hospital setting. I'm comfortable where I'm at but sometimes I want to do more! The problem is I'm scared. I feel like I've already lost so much by being in LTC. We see mainly the same cases over and over. I know the longer I wait to move the harder it will be, but at the same time I don't want to be "judged" for not knowing different things. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for letting me vent! :)

The only way to learn is by doing. Thats what educators, practice and time is for. Follow your heart. The rest will follow. Getting a new job isnt a life sentence. Try it. If it isnt for you, theres always something else. Your alreafy a step aheaf by knowing you like LTC. There will always be jobs there.

I agree with the PP. Follow your heart. LTC positions are much easier to come by than most others. Give your dreams a go! See if acute care is what your imagine, and if not, LTC is always there. :)
