Thank you Esme12 and lycro310 for the post!! Your posts were very helpful. I already accepted the offer at the LTAC since it was more guaranteed than wait on the Med-SUrg interview at the nearby hospital. I'm a new RN and I hope working at the LTAC will be a good choice for me. I do want eventually want to work in the ICU or on a regular Med-Surg unit in a short term acute hospital in the future. Hopefully the transition will be good for me after one year of experience.

Hi! I'm so glad I found this post. I'm in a similar scenario and I need advice from more experience nurses. I am a new graduate and just got offered a job at long term acute care hospital. I also have an interview with a nearby hospital in their med-surg unit. At the long term acute care hospital, they have their own ICU and Med-surg...Should I go ahead and accept the offer from the LTAC or wait on the med-surg interview at the nearby hospital?..also, in the future.if I want to work at another hospital, will they consider my LTAC experience as acute care? any advice is appreciated. =)
