I would like honest feedback from those of you who are currently in L&D. I will graduate May 2006 with ADN and am open to lots of areas, but would love to do L&D.
I just was offered an internship position as a nurse tech doing postpartum checks/care for moms and babies for this summer. I'm very excited about this opportunity and think it will help me see if L&D is where I want to go.
Upon telling a friend (who is a nurse) about this, she told me her advice was not to get stuck in women's services, but to get broad experience so that when pt stats go down, I will always have a job, and so that management knows that they can pull me anywhere.
It got me thinking about both sides of things. WHat are your thoughts?
