Hospital RN Looking for a Change!

[RN_srs]

I have been a RN on a Medical floor for 2 years now. When I started in the hospital I grew to love the versatility of my unit. Unfortunately over the past (at least) 6 months some big changes have been made to our patient population and because of that, I am in a desperate need of change.

The type of work I'm doing is not why I went into nursing. I can't take it anymore, this is not what I want to do. This is a Community Hospital and none of the other floors interest me.

I'm currently working on my MSN in Nursing Education with the goal of being a nursing instructor. I'm worried if I transfer our that that typical Med/Surg environment that I will not be as a desirable candidate for a teaching job.

I'm in need of a serious change of pace and I've really taken interest in clinic nursing, but especially urgent care.

Looking for an urgent care position in suburban area I live in, but they are hard to come by.

Looking for any/all advice; in addition to input on the clinic and urgent care setting.

Thank you!!

Have you considered contacting your facility's education department since you're working towards an MSN in education? They may have an option or suggestion for you.
