I was an ICU nurse before med school, and it was really working in the ICU that drew me to medicine (I'm now an m2). However, with as much as I hear about intensivist burnout and regret going into their speciality, I'm just wondering: would you do it again?
And if you would not go into critical care, what would you choose? Were there other things you considered in med school that you wished you had pursued?
I loved critical care as a nurse but I'm wondering if I'll curse the day I didn't pursue derm/ophtho/literally anything else in 20 years. Someone please tell me you love your job and it's ICU till death do you part. 🙂
