I used to write on this blog. I have been pretty busy in the whole Fosterhood thing, so I haven't really been into what's going on the wonderful land of Urgent Care Nursing. Of course this job is BORING.
I start a BSN program again in June so that I can get my Masters in Education. I want to get Wound Care Certified too.
I also am sending in my resume for an LTAC, because I NEED to do MORE. I feel lazy here, and when I actually get cases that are interesting, I don't like them because of the fact that I may have to stay late or run around like a chicken with my head cut off over something because we don't have what we need or because I am so fearful of my IV skills, as rusty as they are, that when I miss, I fear for my job. Which is completely stupid and only a self imposed anxiety at this point but since it's MA work more than RN work... I feel totally... well... BORED!
Is there a field of Nursing that I like?????????
You'll find what is right for you dear. I know exactly how you feel and I have done exactly what you are doing now, looking. I found a new adventure, Trauma! I am also going back to school. It's very funny how we don't see each other but our careers are flowing in the same direction
ReplyDeleteI love how nursing is very versatile that is one of the reason I became a nurse but here are some fields I do not like....nursing home and ICU. Those places don't match my personality at all. Congrats on getting your BSN in June. Can't wait to read about your journey doing so :-)

I've been in psych nursing for a year, and so far, everyday is different.
ReplyDeleteLet's just say I've NEVER been bored. ;)
While nursing does offer many advantages, there are disadvantages as well. Nursing is not easy, and can be very physically demanding. Long hours are often required and can sometimes be a mandatory part of work. Most nurses still participate in shift work, often having to work nights, weekends, and holidays as part of their jobs. While the benefits of choosing the nursing profession can be many, the disadvantages of the career must also be considered.
