Learning how to manage your time is just as important as clinical skill.
Even new graduates bring value to the table.
Thought assessments, prioritization, and relatable patient education are key.
Working in a med-surg unit builds a strong nursing foundation, with diverse patient care experiences that develop critical thinking and assessment skills.
