Specializes in I've done it all, but only on animals!.

Hi! Im a new grad RN who has work in an animal emergency,cc, icu for 7 years and trained other staff extensively. I am recently hired in a 24 bed transitional care/rehabilitation care place. I am starting with overnights, which I know I love. I was told Ill be working with 2 other team lead nurses who vary between Rns and lpns, mainly be lpns. When asked about who the nurse in charge would be she said me. I got excited initially amd took the job. I have not started yet and am very nervous. Should I be doing this as a new grad? while I am older and have been around a lot of medical situations and conundrums and such I feel I may be in too deep? Ive been an excellent student and overexceeded jn clinicals so I guess I dont know until I try? The place is a part of a large company owning specialty and hospital in my city so I dont beleive they are just hiring me to hire, but truly beleive in me? Is this still a bad idea?
