Where to start

Hello all,

I am sure this is not the very new question.

I am in my final year of MSN-NP (Adult Health)

I teach part time iand I work at mid-management level in a small hospital.No more bedside since 6 months.

Recently my role is becoming intense with Research and Data Management.

While I consider it as a good progress,it is not what I will be doing as a NP.

I am thinking may be I will opt for a role transition in the same hospital as I have earned a very good reputation and position.

I am still confused about how and where to kick off as NP? In employee health? or ER?

:confused:

I would imagine that transferring to a position that involves more clinical experience and skill/assessment-building will only help you to practice as an NP. While you will have a NP degree, I'm sure employers do look at your past employment history, and may question your non-clinical experience. (Though 6 months is not really a long time away from the bedside). If you want to practice in a place like the ER as an NP, (I'm assuming you are choosing an area based on what YOU want to do) I would personally encourage you to work IN an ER, to get a feel for it, and quickly build up your clinical skills. It can only make you a better NP.
