I will be graduating from nursing school in Dec of 2008 and I am looking to go into the ICU. I live in Boston and here we have many hospitals that offer new graduate RN ICU programs that have preceptorships that last for 6-8 months. I know a couple of nurses who have done the program and feel it was completely worth it. Unfortunately, there is big possibility that after I graduate my fiance and I will be moving to Charleston, SC for his job. If there is anyone on here that lives in Charleston and knows of a hospital willing to take on new grads in the ICU, please let me know! I would greatly appreciate it! So far I have one possible lead at the Medical University of South Carolina and that is it! Like most of us on here I have been working in a hospital as float tech since I completed my first clinical. Being a float has its perks in a big city hospital because you get to see a litte of everything from med/surg to ER to ICU! After the summer I will only be working in the ER and ICU to increase my experience even more in those areas:)
