starting out as a new graduate in a specialty area

[majva]

I am about to graduate in May as a RN. I have worked several years in the ER as a LPN. I was offered a job in the ER as a new graduate RN. Does any one have any advice on if this is the right thing to do- start out in a specialty area?

You have already worked this area, so if you like ER and want to remain there go for it.You already have your basics down as a LPN so any specialty would be glad to have you! Good luck..I was a LPN first too and it it only helped. :)

If you are comfortable there and you already love it, go for it!! Congrats and good luck.
