I have been putting in applications prior to nursing school at many local hospitals and just recieved a call back the other day. I placed my application in for a nursing assistant (I am already certified) position in Med/Surg, and thought that's what I wanted to do. I also saw an opening for Health Unit Coordinator (unit secretary) in ED, and thought that sounded very interesting. I have been talking to many people about which one I would be getting more experience with and so far I have heard to try for the Health Unit Coordinator position.
With your experience, which would you refer for a pre-nursing student? I know I will gain experience anywhere in the hospital, but want to get the most bang for my buck.
Thanks,
Scott
