Training after graduation?

I graduate May 07 with my BSN. I'm curious to know if there are any hospitals out there that hire new grads and place them in training programs such as ER/ICU. I'm very intersted in specializing in one or both of these areas. Any info appreciated...Thks ;-)

Yes - where I live (Houston) there are a ton that do this. They're generally called nurse internships and they are a great way to get into specialty/critical care nursing.

Thanks...appreciate the info

Start checking the hospital employment openings as many of these internships will be filled long before you graduate and you may miss out.

Absolutely check asap....I was offered my new grad fellowship even before graduation. Those positions fill up *fast*...you may even have to wait until close to the next graduation :(

Thank you...looking at a few possibilities in San Diego where they offer 6 month ER training ;-)

im a new grad, and i was hired to work in the bone marrow transpant unit which is considered critical care. i know a lot of fellow students that got hired in both the er and icu. but like someone else mentioned, if you want those positions, make sure that you apply EARLY. i was offered oncology at another hospital, and then they realized that they had hired too many gns, and took back the position!

GOOD LUCK
