Hello everyone!
I am new here, but I have just been accepted to Nursing school in VA. I have a few quick questions.
1) How many of you knew what type of Nurse you wanted to be before entering school? And secondly, how many of you actually stayed true to that path after graduation? (for example, was your first job dictated by a change of heart while in school or simply available employment?)
2) How likely is it to actually work in your desired area straight after school?I am not exactly sure what the title would be, but I want desperately to work on the women's labor and delivery unit as the nurse who helps care for the mother after delivery. Is that realistic for me to imagine actually being able to land that job straight out of school (as an RN)?
Thanks so much!
