Hi everyone! I'm currently working 7a to 730p at my hospital. I just got a job at an ER at another hospital (about a 40 min commute -- but worth it!), and I will be working the 6p to 6a shift. I just wanted to know how the night RNs go about on their...

Hi! If you don't mind my asking, how long did it take for yo to feel comfortable in a Mom/Baby unit? Also, what made you want to transition from ICU to Mom/Baby?

Thank you for your kind advice! In my way of thinking, I am wanting a change..and since I've worked in rehab as an RN for the past year, I figured it may be best to go into ortho. I figured I would just look better with my rehab experience. But my he...
