Where do New Nurses Go?

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I Was just simply wandering if I could get some input on the best areas for new graduate nurses to start. I am just a student now ,but the way I see it, you can never plan too early. I will begin clinicals in the fall and I was curious to know what oppurtunities I will have upon graduting and what would be best for me. I would like to know what area would be the best rea for me to start in. I am still unsure what area of nursing I would like to ultimately work in. Anyone which some pointers, I would be glad to hear from you.

Thanks (as always):)

When I was in school my instructors tried to tell us to start out in medsurg to get the experience before specializing. Fully half the class, including me, didn't listen and went straight into critical care. I love it and would not trade it for anything, but I wish I'd listened and gotten the medsurg training first.

I do not plan on working med/surg forever, but i do plan on spending at least a year there to develop my skills. My instructors are also urging this. Good LUck in clinicals!!
