I have been a bedside nurse for 4 years and have only worked hospital 12 hr shifts, even as a nurse assistant. Now that I am transitioning to clinic, I'm a little anxious how I would get to doctor appointments and things that I need to go to? The clinic is 8AM-5PM, 5 days a week and commute is an hour. How do you get to places you need to be? How do you like working an 8AM-5PM?
Will PCU count as critical care experience for CRNA school? I work at a level 1 trauma hospital in the Cardiac Progressive Care Unit, though we get just about everything. We work with vent patients, as well as drips such as cardizem, lasix, heparin, insulin, dobutamine, cardene, amiodarone, and nitroglycerin.
