I decided to leave my current workplace med/surg tele and accepted a job at another ED. I will be brand new to the emergency department. I have 3 months to kill. I want to be as successful as possible, for the patients moreso.
Should I be memorizing ACLS? Codes? Etc? Thanks in advance.
my current manager will be happy to see me go. there is a "program" in place for transfers too.
I just don't want to be stuck here for another couple of years going on forever if I get too comfortable . my plan was to do this 3 years ago. sadly, experience and education kept me from applying at other locations as I didn't meet the requirements until now.
After 8 years of med/surg and 1 year of telemetry, I finally decided to take the plunge. I want to be an emergency room nurse.
I been at my current location for 5 years. My question is: do I transfer within my hospital? Or do I leave and apply somewhere else? What's easier in terms of transitioning?
NOTE; I plan to ultimately leave this place because the commute is killing me.
Coworkers told me I should learn at my current hospital and bail after a year.
