Hello all! I'm new to nursing and my family and I were discussing the flexibility in nursing schedules (usually for experienced nurses,, we discovered). We're curious about all nursing schedules available out there, especially as I make the transition into a working nurse and think about my future jobs.
I haven't really come across any work schedules in which you can work 3 12 hr shifts M-F? For example, working MWF, or TRF, or any combination of weekdays with no weekend requirements. So, I was wondering if those even exist? Or would you say M-F nursing jobs are typically 9-5 with weekends off?
I understand if those schedules do exist, it will most likely be for nurses that have experience and not a new grad nurse like me. I'm just trying to think ahead of what a possible schedule can be for when I get married (next year) and plan to have a little family of my own soon after that.
