Hi guys,

Newly Rn licensed here...:nurse:

I am just curious what specialty area would you recommend best for new RN's with no experience? :rolleyes:

and... why? :typing

Specializes in Emergency.

Emergency Room!!! That's where I want to go. Sorry I couldn't answer your question, but at least you got something :) it just seems so interesting!!

Specializes in ICU, CVICU.

It depends! What are your career goals? What are you interested in? What is available in your area? I don't think there is a correct answer to your question. If you can get an internship in the area of your choice, I think that is the best place to start. Congrats and good luck!

I am really interested with Operating room but there is no internship for that position in our area. :thnkg:I am considering Med-surg or oncology. I have heard Med-Surg is a great place to start in nursing coz u'll learn valuable skills that will serve you well throughout nursing career. :idea:

Just asking for opinion... there is no correct and wrong answer here.:typing

Specializes in Home Health.

Is this Methodist? yes, im looking for job too but it is kinda hard coz i dont have any experience yet as an RN and im foreign grad. hows ur job hunt doing?

Specializes in Home Health.

No this is Medical City hospital.But I am just like you with hospital experience ,since I used to be home health nurse.

I am just beginning with job hunting,mostly researching..

Specializes in NICU Level III.

If you don't have a passion to go somewhere specific, med surg is probably your best bet in that you'll get a bit of everything.
