The ones that gives you the most hands on. At my hospital, trauma or er was great. In a couple of days we got into a lot.

I would say cardiology or surgical/trrauma stepdown.

The one with the most welcoming staff.

For first med-surg, clinical instructor makes a huge difference rather than what floor you go to. I think I would go simple and work you're way up.
