You work directly under the supervision of a RN. I will work 36 hours a week for 10 weeks this summer for the internship. A rotation of Day shifts and Night shifts are scheduled. And thank you such much for responding to my thread!

Like yourself I am a single man with no children. I had never even held an infant prior to my OB rotation. Deep down i was freaked out inside but you would of never known. I recieved i praise from the nurses and from my professor on how i conducted myself. My first experience holding a child was while i was giving a bath demo. The family was so intent on learning the father video recorded me while i performed the bath. Trying to give them the best experience i could i gave as much information on the child's safety and temperature regulation during this process... The child did not cry during the bath however, he decided he would void all over my arm (only 30ml). To say the least my professor and I had a good laugh about it. Your teacher should know this may be a difficult rotation for you and they should do there best to find you patients who are 100% comfortable with having a male caregiver. The labor processes was nuts and It's something you have to see! The lady had a grade three rip and the child had a nuchal (sp?) chord x3 around his neck.... To say the least it was a interesting time!! Have fun man and keep your chin up!

Hello everyone, Thanks for clicking on my thread! I am currently entering my 2nd semester in my junior year of college for my BSN. I recently was selected to do my summer internship at the ICU. I am extremely happy i decided as nursing as my career. I work as an CNA during college and i know i have picked the right path. However, with the arrival of the news of my internship i have started to think beyond the traditional BSN Rn degree. I believe with hard work this summer i may be offered a job in the ICU when i graduate college. From my understanding ICU nurses are highly praised by grad-schools. My question is- What all steps do i need to accomplish to put me in the position to becoming a NP or CRNA. I am a 3.3 GPA student who always receives EXCELLENT reviews on my clinical work & at the hospital i am highly praised by my hard work ethic and my ability to bond with patients. Thanks for your guys' imput!
