Hello Fellow Nurses! I have a question/topic of discussion for you. I'm relatively new to the field of nursing having been working for the last three years. The latest of which (actually just a tad longer than a year...) I've been working on the acute care level on medical/surgical units. To make this the Reader's Digest Condensed Version, I want a new job and I'm really hoping to be able to break into the critical care field of nursing. Any pointers for someone trying to change specialties like this? I know units will hire new grads into critical care areas, so someone with experience should seem like a shoe in! However, it's seeming it may not totally be that way. Thanks in advance!
