New Grad RNs in ICU

[ventgurl]

Is it unheard of to have new grads go directly into critical care? I'm in Connecticut and most of the hospitals stress "NO new grads will be hired in ICU"! Why has this changed? I know plenty of nurses that went straight to ICU upon graduation and are some of the best nurses.

So I read your good news! Congrats. I am a nursing student who also wants to get in the icu as soon as possible. Which hospital did you get a job at if you don't mind me asking and which do you know hire new grads?
