Re: need advice finding day shift jobs
I hate to be the one to tell you, but you are probably NOT going to find those hours in most hospitals--a lot of places like to do 12 hour shifts over 8s. Doing every other weekend is pretty much standard in any acute care/SNF/LTC facility. Also, there's often a waiting list for day shifts in many facilities, so even if you found a place with 8 hour shifts, you may have to wait a long time for a day spot.
Your best bet may be a RN job in a doctor's office, clinic, urgent care center or school. It won't pay as well as your current job, but the hours will probably be more in line with what you want--that's what you'll have to trade off on.
