Help for career

Can anyone help me out? I am a new nurse (1 year). I am find that I do not liike being a FLOOR NURSE. It is for me very stressful. You deal with the patients, management, CNAs and familities. I am an LN going for my RN. Can anyone give an an advice on what other areas in nursing that I can go in other than the floor nurse? Oh, I also have a background in computers (been a computer programmer back in my country). Any advice would be helpful.

Thank you.

Have you thought of being an RN-auditor or RN-coder? You can find more information at these websites:

Other certifications are:

CHC (Certified in Healthcare Compliance) offered through the Health Care Compliance Association. More information can be found at:

CPHQ (Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality) offered through the Healthcare Quality Certification Board. More information can be found at:

http://www.cphq.org/

CCM (Certified Case Manager). More information can be found at:

There are also the certifications offered through the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), such as the Case Management Nurse and the Informatics Nurse. For these 2 certifications, you will need work experience in the specialties to take the exam.

Check out the requirements to take the certification exams. Some may not require work experience, which would allow new graduates or RNs (in diverse fields) to take the exam and apply for various other jobs.
