I have the impression that community health, home health, and doctor's offices are the least stressful. But pretty much anywhere outside the hospital and LTC environments is likely to be less stressful.

*** Re-hab no doubt about it. I have floated there several times. All the patients are off the floor to therapy from 0830 and don't come back till 1530 or so. Most have "do not wake" orders at night.

In the hospital, I would think the least stressful job would be working as a nurse educator. The ones that you see during orientation that teach you how to use their equipment. Or working as a occupational health nurse (the ones that give you flu shots).
