I'm a nursing student and have recently gotten a "nursing student" position in local community hospital's out-patient surgery unit. Because I can't really circulate surgeries as a student and they're not going to pay me to just observe surgeries, I'm either going to be working in holding or recovery room. I haven't seen when things go wrong post-op, only small children with tonsillectomies having a hell of a time coming out (confused, fussy, etc) so I'm just curious as to why you chose PACU and if you would recommend it to a new grad.
