So currently i work in the hospital, 12 hour shifts differential pay. I work almost full time, full benefits etc. Its really great. i LOVE having days off, and sometimes i even get a week off.
Anyway,getting married spring of 2013 (Yes a while away but we are in no rush!!). At that time our hospital is going to be switching to the new building, which will still be connected to the clinic like it is now. Now we do want to start a family someday (Again NO rush!!!!) But there will be alot of things switching around in the hospital, so it would be a good out for me if i want to go to the clinic. They are already starting to plan units and who will be working where.
Just wondering from those who have worked in the hospital then moved to clinic. What was the change like for you? my main concern is i would be making ALOT less than i do now. However, i love the hours, i love the idea of being able to be at work at 8am since i have a 45 minute drive to work. I love the idea of being able to get off at 5 and make it home in time to have dinner with my fiance. Now, i don't get out of work till like 7:30 and get home around 8:15. when i work nights, i sleep during the day. I love the idea of no holidays or weekends. Is it worth it??? Just want to hear from others who have been in this same situation.
