Hello,
I'm graduating in Dec. with a BSN and really loved my clinicals in L&D, high-risk antepartum, newborn nursery, and PP (in that order). I am currently interviewing for a position in PP at nights (that is all that is available for new grads).
I am wondering how experienced RN's feel about a new grad going to PP at night and if u think it will be busy? I'm concerned that it will be quiet at night especially in PP. I was hoping for L&D but they have stated that the only opening is in PP. Any suggestions or thoughts are appreciated.
I'm just trying to weigh the options and decide if it's a great way to get my foot in the door or if it isn't a good idea since I will literally be brand new and in need of experience. A few RN's have suggested going the med/surg way for about 6 months but many say that is no longer necessary especially if I have no intention of ever doing med/surg. I do realize that OB incorporates a lot of med/surg (i.e. a diabetic pt).
Thanks for any advice!
