Specializes in OB, newborn, gyne.

If you are willing and able to keep up all the competencies required to work in the nursery, there shouldn't be a problem. We have nurses who work full-time for our hospital then work the minimum number of shifts at another hospital for the big bucks (registry wages.) Some love it, others find it too stressful. Good luck!
