You will receive invaluable knowledge in your med/surg course. I started as a new grad in med/surg and I'm still there, by choice. Yes, there will be trying days, trying patients, mad doctors, impossible family members, but the experience is priceless. When I receive a report from an ER nurse or a PACU nurse who doesn't know how to pronounce common medications, I know they never worked on a med/surg unit.

I am a 2nd year BSN student and going to my very first med-surg class. Would anyone like to share their first experience on med-surg floor? What kind of things that needs to pay extra attention?? Also what is the transition is like from other specialty to meg- surg?? Do you have to get more education every time you change your specialty??
