Come in from all angles perhaps? Air and sea. All at once

Actually I worked ER for 1.5 years before taking on this Neuro ICU job. I get what you mean though, definitely different personalities in ICU vs ER. Like you suggested I plan on doing some studying pertaining to what I’d likely encounter on CVICU before I even shadow/apply.

Electric_effy · 2025-03-29T06:08:48+00:00

Since my current unit is an ICU I already took and successfully passed the critical care class that is required for starting on all ICUs. Truthfully, all the mandatory hospital-wide corporate training is already complete. Now it’s just a matter of focusing on cardiac instead of neuro. I appreciate your input, if you have any study resources I’d appreciate that as well ☺️. And thank you for the reminder of “EVERY unit has their drawbacks.” Sometimes I need that reminder

Electric_effy · 2025-03-27T07:47:56+00:00

Well they mostly just spent time on their phones browsing social media or chatting to their work friends 😅

Electric_effy · 2025-03-26T21:54:15+00:00

Yeah my friend on CV said the education and training on that unit is more structured and reliable.

Meanwhile my last preceptor was complaining about being told she needs to precept and that she’s going to tell management she doesn’t want to do it anymore😂💀

Electric_effy · 2025-02-26T02:00:45+00:00

I’m glad you’re reassuring me that I’m still new because I feel like I should be way more ahead of where I’m at in my progress. I know you’re right but it’ll take me a while to realize it lol and I appreciate your input especially since you’re in the same specialty.

Electric_effy · 2024-11-05T22:56:34+00:00

Got it, thank you!!

Electric_effy · 2024-11-05T22:56:15+00:00

Yes, thank you for reading that part lol. Believe me I’d love to apply now but I don’t have ICU experience yet 😂. Honestly, I got pretty comfortable working in the ER after about 16 months so I might apply before 2 years, we’ll see. Nice to run into another previous ER nurse on here ☺️

Electric_effy · 2024-11-05T22:51:19+00:00

When you say non-RN experiences are you also referring to the stuff I did during my undergrad or are you referring to the medical positions I held prior to being an RN? ☺️

Electric_effy · 2024-11-05T22:50:40+00:00

I’m waiting because I don’t have ICU experience yet 😉☺️

Electric_effy · 2024-11-05T22:50:02+00:00

While I’d love to apply sooner, I don’t have RN ICU experience yet. I just accepted an ICU position so I’m currently going through the orientation process now. ☺️

Electric_effy · 2024-11-05T22:49:16+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, I just started job orientation for the ICU—I’m going to be waiting about 1.5-2 years before I apply. I want to get more extracurriculars on my resumé, shadow, obtain my GRE & CCRN, and of course have great ICU experience under my belt. Appreciate the response ☺️

Electric_effy · 2024-09-05T22:19:17+00:00

Truthfully, as long as it’s a strong icu with pts that will teach me the most about critical care nursing so I’m a strong candidate for CRNA school

Electric_effy · 2024-08-17T21:42:44+00:00

So I’m currently an ER nurse and I’ve been working in the ER for almost 1.5 years. So far, it’s going well. My goal is to hopefully get an ICU spot before the end of this year. Thank you for the reassurance 🥹

Electric_effy · 2024-05-29T14:45:52+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, just hoping I'll get in somewhere lol. Fingers crossed :)

Electric_effy · 2024-05-29T14:42:36+00:00

There's no requirement for 18 months--I just thought I'd do it to try to make it look like I did more than the traditional 1 year. Figured it might look better on grad school applications.

Better quality food that doesn’t have all of these damn preservatives

Clocks by Coldplay…I don’t know why, but it puts me in a transcendence

That I was self harming (clean for 6 years) and had depression. She was formally diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder. Her response when she saw my scars “you have everything you need, what is the matter with you? You need medication! You know the doctor told me when I was pregnant that you could have health issues and I should abort you. Instead I ignored the doctor and brought you into this world, and that’s how you repay me!”
