Ok want to know if this is normal. I have been a LPN for over 3 yrs and got my RN this year. I realise that I don't like to give meds anymore. I am tecahing and I love it. I like more management, teaching, something where I don't have to be down and dirty and people yelling. I love sitting with the patients and talking to them and solving problems. I do not want to work in a hospital. Is this bad for my career if I never work in a hosp?
There are many nurses that never ever set foot in a hospital for their entire career, and that doesn't make them any less of a nurse. It's your license that makes you a nurse, not where you work or what speciality you work in.
