Been a critical care RN quite a few years now and thinking of the next step for advancement. I really have no desire to do primary/preventative care but would love to work in a trauma center, ICU or first assist in the OR as an NP or PA. Ive been so torn about what my future holds because although I already have my BSN and it would be the easiest thing to go back for my MSN-NP, I really enjoy the pathology/pathophys and wonder if I would be better prepared for what I want to do by learning from the medical model rather than the nursing model by going through a medical science intensive Thoughts anyone? Im sure someone has been in my shoes before : )

Thanks for the info! I submitted my application around the 8th of july and havent heard back from any of the 4 units i applied for : (. Hopefully though its just them taking their time and not me not being a good applicant

Klone, About how long did it take them to get back to you for an interview after you submitted your application? Also what units did you work on? Thanks!
