career choice advice needed

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I am not sure I went into the right career but I want to make the most of it by finding a "nitche" in the field of nursing that might suit me. I hope someone will have some ideas for me. These are my likes and dislikes. I only like a medium amount of stress and medium amount of responsibility. I like to be very much independent and work with protocols. I don't like dealing with death too much. I am not interested in ACLS. I don't want to work a lot with kids. I don't like inserting NG tubes or Foley's, or suctioning. Can anyone help? Is my career doomed? I thought about dialysis nursing? or Recovery room?

If you don't like ACLS, don't choose PACU- most units require it, and you may find yourself using it more than you like. How about LTC?
