I hear so much about future nurses on this board saying they want their CRNA. Whats the big attraction? The high pay wage? Always being in the surgery area? I now work at a level 1 trauma hospital as a nurses aide and I float the whole hospital. I know I don't want to be a psych nurse and OB and PEDS can be had by those who really want that speciality, not me. I think I want to work in the ICU. My best friend is a ICU nurse and is travel nursing in California right now. So I have had a dose of what I'm getting myself into here. My friend whos a travel nurse says its not worth it pay wise to get her BSN right now but she will when she's ready to move to a desk job she says. I know I at least want my BSN (I think I'll do it part-time after I graduate with my RN) so when my knees give out or I'm tired of floor nursing I have it. And I know I want it because I don't want to be turned down for a job I see in the future because I don't have it and someone else does.
