I will be working in the PICU and will start my job in about 3 weeks! I'm also nervous but anxious to get started. I know starting out in the ICU (especially peds) will be hard but I am looking forward to the challenge!

Hi, I am in a BSN pogram, still working on my pre-requisites. I just started back to school after a 4 year marriage/kids break. I have wanted to be a nurse since high school because of what I saw of nursing, my love for science, helping people, etc. I was a phlebotomist for awhile working with in-patients and I really loved it. Having said all that, I still don't know exactly what a nurse *does* on a daily basis. Be it in a nursing home, ICU, L&D, Home health, etc please share what your duties are. Everything from the paperwork, meds, treatments, baths, feeding, I'm interested in it all! I want to make sure I am really going into something I would not only be good at but enjoy doing and also just because it is really interesting to me! Thanks!
