I am wondering if there are any nurses on this site who used to be teachers, and how they feel about having made the switch. I may sound like I am repeating myself a bit - the last time I posted about this, a few people said "turn and run away from nursing!" I am majorly burnt out at work and I know I need a change, but I am having a hard time making a final decision if I should go toward nursing. I am currently in a CNA class and I am hoping my clinicals (which start April 5) will help me decide. Anyway.... are there any former teachers willing to share their opinions/experiences?
P.S. I am a music teacher, which means in addition to working the 8 hour day and then planning lessons and doing homework, I have always had at least 8 hours a week of extra-curriculars. I am not afraid to work hard, but I do want to feel like I am "off" at some point!
