There is no best place. I promise. The reason is, until you've been there for at least a couple months, you won't know what you like. Some people want ICU then learn it's actually kind of boring to them. Then they get into oncology and love it. The best place is the one that hires you at your desired pay rate. Then you find out everyone on the unit is a jerk. Nobody, I mean nobody, can answer this for you. I would choose a unit or hospital or clinic that matches some kind of progress toward some goal in the future so even if you don't like your first unit, it will still be some kind of asset to your future goals. Good luck.
Best place to start is a teaching hospital you will be able to experience what it means to be part of a team and learn time management. Then after a year or so move on to a specialty area you would enjoy. With each level of progress match it with acquiring higher level of education get certified, go for your Master level. Just remember it takes time to be proficient in your field.
The operating room because there is no book that can ever show you exactly how the human body is put together and how the inside of a human body looks. I worked in the operating room and I was able to see every organ, bone, etc the human body has. It helped me with my patient care later on and I understood patients issues much easier.
I started out at a teaching university hospital. It was a Level I facility and I learned so much! You get a lot of experience and gain so many skills because you see such a variety of cases.
One of the best places to begin your nursing career is a setting where you completed a clinical rotation with a clinician who acted as your mentor. This is provided that you enjoyed the experience, have admiration and respect for the clinical acumen and patient-provider relationships of your mentor, the general supportiveness of the work environment vis-a-vie the existing professional strata from administrators, physicians, advanced nurse providers, and support staff. Pay close attention to the manner in which the staff interact with one another in terms of respect for and clarity of professional boundaries, approach to problems solving with staffing issues, patient acuity, individual skill levels of the nursing team, career goals, and so forth. Do you get the sense that the existing leadership, as well as your peers, genuinely want you to succeed? Or is there a pre-existing atmosphere of chaos, insistence on maintaining the status quo and policies and actions that are motivated by self interest as opposed to the betterment of patient care?
VA - they offer 5 weeks of vacation and a pension which most hospitals have deleted from their packages long ago. Incentives for education...the list goes on.... Great patients! Every patient is a VIP!👍

I feel what I did was a great way. I worked float pool in the hospital for 10 years. I tried to get certified for each department. It was great. I worked across all age and disease continuous.
I became very marketable!

Go to a teaching hospital that hires new grads. Nursing homes, as well, but I personally feel it's too much responsibility/pressure for a new grad. Years ago I was advised to do med/surg first but if you want a certain specialty you can go directly into it. Make sure they have a solid orientation!
Or a community hospital/ if u like to be independent or a large medical institution with a good new grad program.
Large healthcare organization
Something medical surgical for about three years and then you can do anything.
I began my first 2 years at a teaching hospital
I would recommend a teaching facility in order to develop your skill set—Then I would focus on advanced degrees and even perhaps anesthesiology or medical school with board certification.
Best to work when you are still young is a government hospital or you can do as a travel nurse.
Make sure you go to a hospital that has a nurse residency program. These programs help you to be a successful. Because they give new grads a better training
Medical surgical nursing in the hospital by far is the best. I’ve been a nurse for 42 years and my experience in med surg was the BEST learning I had. You are exposed to so many different aspects of Nursing, you are given the opportunity to work with nurses with a variety of expertise and doctors of all temperament!
