Specializes in Med/Surg, Dialysis.

Hi Everyone,

Just looking for some insight, I currently work in home dialysis M-F 8-430pm w/ on-call every few weeks. I enjoy my job but sometimes I really miss the night shift on my med-surg floor and dealing w/ more complex issues. I liked night shift, my body hated it, but I enjoyed working w/ a group of nurses and techs. I definitely didn't like day shift on the med-surg floor, gave me panic attacks!

A little advice needed, I am probably moving in 6 months and I am torn if I should pursue returning to the hospital or stick w/ home dialysis. There are pro's and con's to both, I get tired of working 5 days a week but I do enjoy having weekends off.

Just not sure what to do, I feel like I have a really good job but then I also feel like the hospital was challenging...

Thanks for any input!
