Don't shoot me for asking but...

are there nursing positions where you do not work nights, weekends and holidays? I'm in California if that helps to answer as I know some of the 'rules' seem to be different here.

TIA!

Specializes in NICU, PICU, educator.

Our new nurses go to eves or nights or the occas. 3a-3p if it is open. The day jobs are posted when available and go to the person with the highest seniority.

To get into the specialty areas at my hospital, you have to have at least 2 years under your belt (ie outpt, etc.).

Endo nursing. Week 5 days from 7:30 AM to 3:15 pm no weekends, no holidays no OT. I would be bore out of my mind if I worked there.

I am thinking of working weekends only and commuting 200 miles away from home to do it.
