So I've been a nurse for 12 years. The majority of that has been working as an ER nurse, general er then 4 years pediatric ER. The last 3 years I've been doing home health nursing. I made the switch due to my needs for family and flexibility and wanting to be able to be more involved with my kids school functions. My home health job is currently flexible and I do enjoy it. I also love the people I work with.
However, the school where my kids go will have a nurse position come open by the next school year. I know I will take a pay cut. I know I will deal with boredom. But, is it worth it to be in my kids school? To have weekends, holidays, snow days, and summers off?
has anyone here made this switch? If so I would love to hear your honest opinion
