i was wondering if nurses tend to stay in the same area of nursing more than they change areas. i was also wondering if, even if they have changed areas, they still consider the area they started in as their fav. area.

Specializes in Everything but psych!.

I've been in almost every area of nursing because I get bored easily if I'm not learning new things. Some of the areas I revisited years later and found them essentially unchanged from what they used to be. But, after 28 years, I'm still an RN!
