š Now besides the obvious of wanting to help other people and give back to others, nursing was an option I wanted to pursue because of some other non traditional reasons.
š©š»āāļøNursing is great because there is so much flexibility with options. You are not just limited to beside and working in a hospital. You can work outpatient/clinic, skilled nursing facility, home health, WFH, etc and have a 9-5 M-F no weekends, no holidays job if you want to.
š§š»āāļøOther non traditional jobs within nursing include aesthetic nursing, EPIC trainer, camp nurse, school nurse, researcher, hospice nurse, educator, lactation consult, nurse manager, public health nurse, etc. So many options!! ā
š Now for me my main reasons is working 12 hour shifts - working 3 days a week to have freedom to pursue hobbies and spend time with loved ones. Yes working weekends and holidays suck. And switching between days and night shift is rough, but I still like the flexibility. Plus I loveee traveling and Iām glad my job does give me the freedom to do so.
āWhat are some of your reasons why you chose nursing?
