How many hours per week (avg) do you work these days? - page 3

13 nights per month.

I work two day 12 hours and two overnight 12 hours. So 48 a week if I do not get called in to cover someone.

35 hours a week. I wanted less than that but they only had FT avail. No complaints though because I LOVE my job. I also like the schedule of two on two off and I can work more in a row if I want a week off for a vacay.

we all love our jobs but sometimes the working hours are just too much but we still have to be considerate though..

We are always short and have to bring in nurses from the float pool. Just hired 8 more for our unit.

I'd really like to reduce my hours a bit, but we are always short. I'm averaging 36 hours a week, sometimes more.

true. no matter how we wish to cut working hours, we have to work extra especially when we are understaffed..

I work between 50-80 hours/week. I love my job, I love OT, I'm still young, no kids, no significant other. I enjoy the fact that in a few years I will have enough for a large down payment on a house because of not having a life . Maybe that sounds sad, but when male counterparts do it, they are praised. So long as I'm not burning out, I figure its all systems go

we have no choice but to work on irregular shifts since hospitals run a 24/7 operation..

Honestly... I loose count @ times I have always said that I know when I go in to work, however, when I come out is a mystery.....Aloha~

I usually work 13-14 hours a day, x3 days. I almost always get a text from my DON on my days off, "Can you come in and work tomorrow from 6-6?". If I wanted to, I could probably work 6-7 days a week, not kidding. I work in skilled physical rehab. Other nurses are always requesting days off, or they need extra help d/t admits/discharges.
