Hi everyone!
I have worked in Labor and Delivery and the Operating Room. I have started feeling like I could be doing more and that I'm wasting my skills and knowledge in the OR. Don't get me wrong, I love the OR and the environment it's a lot of fun but I don't feel like I am being challenged anymore and I've only been in the OR for 2 years.
I began thinking that maybe I would try the ICU! I know it would be tough and a huge learning curve especially since it's been a really long time since I have been exposed to meds and stuff. I was wondering if anyone knew of an OR nurse that came to the ICU. And also what kind of orientation process is given to nurses without ICU experience?
I would eventually love to go back to school to be a CRNA since I do love the OR so much. Thanks for any insight or advice!
