Hello, I am in my last semester of nursing school and I am still unsure of what area I would like to work in. I do know that med/surg is not for me. I have enjoyed most of the specialty areas in my clinicals which included NICU, PICU, OR, and L&D. I have talked with other nurses and many of them tell me that they "just knew" what they wanted to do immediately and I simply don't feel that way. What I like about the ICU is the great nurse/patient ratio. I am currently doing my practicum in the NICU and so far I love it, but I can't say that I cannot see myself doing anything else. I've considered the OR, NICU, PICU, and PACU and probably other areas. I have always been very flexible and adaptive to new situations so perhaps that is why I am feeling this way. If anyone has had similar experience or advice, I would love to hear your feedback! Thanks so much.
