Anyone have experience going from outpatient to inpatient?

Published

I’ve been working at a pediatric doctor’s office for almost a year now. Before this job I was on a med-surg floor at a hospital. I only lasted 3 months and hated it. My co-workers were toxic, we were understaffed, and the patients were mean/disrespectful. I’m now thinking of going back to the hospital, but working on a pediatrics floor instead. Right now I’m working 8am-5pm everyday and feel like I don’t have any free time for appointments/errands. I liked working only 3 days a week when I was at the hospital. Does anyone have any experience making a switch like this? Any advice? I’m not sure how difficult it will be to get hired since I don’t have a lot of inpatient experience.
