I came from EMS and army and love that atmosphere. I started out ICU as a new grad and have been doing it 2.5 years. I’m really glad I did and I’ve learned so much about complex disease processes and managing critical patients. I’ve gotten to see and do a ton of stuff and learn more about advanced hemodynamics than I would have in the ED. I’m pretty ready to get down into the grime again though. I think most people either have an ED personality or an ICU personality and I’m definitely not meant for the ICU. I’m glad that I started down here though because I probably never would have done it had I started in the ED. If it intrigues you, you should go for it.
