Not at the bedside anymore, f that stress.




Work in infection control and love it so far. M-F, 8 hour days, no direct patient care, no weekends, no holidays, no nights. Learning a totally different nursing field that is still important.


Even about to possibly have the option of working from home one day a week as well.

quote:

We are losing a lot of nurses in this area, choosing to work in a less stressful environment...

Until hospitals learn to treat the nursing staff better...this will continue to happen. Nurses can only give so much until they burnout and begin to hate what they do.

Seems as tho the best of each class go into the ICU/ER arena, work it 2-5 years, get burnout, and move out of patient care. So the best of the best end up not at the bedside where we (the patients) need them, but elsewhere. My wife frets about this as a professor of Nursing and I fret about it as a patient. But, can not blame them. Nurses can get great jobs away from the stress.
