Question for the CCRNs

So, here's the background info. I'm a tech at a large teaching facility and I am one of the few that work with the STAT team. As in, I get called for particularly tricky IVs, help transport ICU patients to CT/MRI and such and follow our stat RNs (who are all CCRNs) to codes and rapid responses. Basically I am there as a go getter and to help them with whatever they need. I am in a unique position as a tech in that I am able to get involved in situations that typically do not involve techs, vents and art lines and swans and balloon pumps are all very familiar to me. I've learned so much working with the RNs. After working with the CCRNs for so long, the idea of working on a Med-Surg floor makes me sigh. I just don't want to do that kind of nursing. I am also a senior nursing student who is made aware daily that being a nurse in ICU involves years of experience. As much as I want to go into ICU I am fully aware that as a new grad, going into an ICU situation would be dangerous. So what I'm wondering is this; how long did you all work on the floors before going into ICU? Any advice? Thanks so much!
