Can't find a job I want to stick with

[meghanlyn]

Okay so I get no job is perfect but I'm on my second job since I became a nurse 2 years ago and am seeking another. I started as a ER RN right out of school which was a great experience but not the place for me. I'm now a home health RN case manager and I love this job but hate on call as we cover a wide area and on call nights can be very stressful as you can be all over the place and don't have much back up so I hate feeling completely alone. I'm interviewing for a FN telephone triage job next week as I feel my ER and HH background will help with this position as I'm very used to unpredictability at this point and if I get this job I will most likely stay PRN with the HH agency I'm at since I really enjoy HH nursing. But basically I'm wondering if I'm alone here by being overwhelmed with the endless career options that come with nursing. This is part of why I went into nursing but I figured by now I would have found something I want to do long term. Any feedback or advice is appreciated!

You already know you enjoy Home Health. Unless the agency you work for is the only game in town, why reinvent the wheel?

Investigate other agencies in your area. Many now have dedicated after hours and weekend staff, simply because on-call can be such a soul sucker. I never slept well during my on-call week; I looked and felt like a zombie by the end of it lol.
