Thank you for your input. I have yet to find an urgent care with an orientation program, but will continue to look.

I am a nurse practitioner (3 years experience) working in endocrine and I am now wanting to work in an acute care (urgent care) setting. As a RN I worked in the operating room and believe this was detrimental to developing basic acute care skills. I am now considering working as an ER nurse for a while to enhance, learn additional skills and then transition back to FNP role in urgent care setting. However, I am concerned that if I go "backwards" I will have a difficult time finding a job as an FNP. Any thoughts on this? Would working as ER nurse be a great forum for acquiring the skills to make this transition?
