Need job advice

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I was an LPN for 12 years before becoming an RN, I worked in a hospital for 6 months before leaving. The hospital just wasn't my thing. I have been doing acute home health care since. And when I say acute I mean my patients are discharged from the hospital very sick and not ready to be home.

I now have a job offer for Banner Alzheimers Inst. and a short term rehab. as a Charge Nurse.

I need advice! I make great money doing home health, but I'm really tired of the driving. Do I take the alz. job and stop hands on nursing, or stay hand on and have the same crappy hours?

Hands off = easier... at least from my perspective

Easy job > Harder job

That's why I'm so conflicted. I love hands on, but at the same time I want to just do the education side which the alz job would be. But I don't want to pigeon home myself.

Is advancimg in hh an option?
