new role consideration

Published

Specializes in neuro/ortho med surge 4.

Am I crazy at 59 years old and been out of a hospital setting  for a decade to want to go to an emergency room setting? I am not sure any hospital would hire me let alone for an emergency room. I want to go for it. I never cared for the monotony of medical surgical nursing but enjoy learning. Though it seems the ED becomes a holding  department and sort of inpatient for patients as they wait for beds. What advice would you give me?
