  1. Those Who Have Left Nursing

    harumi22 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Do you know a nurse who decided to settle for a lower-paying job like a cashier because they were desperate to leave nursing? Know anyone who has successfully left this career field? If so, how did...

  2. Forced to Return to the Floor

    harumi22 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I've been working in a hospital and have been a nurse for a few years now. I worked in a Medsurg floor for about a year before I left and did something else. I eventually ended up as a nurse analyst...

  3. New grad, hate nursing! Feel like quitting!

    harumi22 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't know where to begin but here goes. Back in high school and first few years of college, I wanted to be a nurse; however, after my first semester in my nursing program, I realized it wasn't for...

    It seems that the stars aligned for me, and I'm forever thankful. I found something way better than bedside, and it pays well,

  5. New grad, hate nursing! Feel like quitting!

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I actually got into an auditing position first. I inquired about it when I got tired of working bedside, and they gave it to me. I did that for a couple years. After a while, I expressed interest in...

  6. Forced to Return to the Floor

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in General Nursing

    They may still see it as such. I was going off of what an administrator said when we tried getting assistance from nurses outside the hospital. The nurses were concerned of being forced to work...

  7. Forced to Return to the Floor

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in General Nursing

    I would definitely prefer to help out with those tasks versus taking my own patients. You're right. It wouldn't be as stressful, and I still get to help out. They will let me know later exactly what I...

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you! They will let me know exactly what will be in store for us when they discuss a bit further about the details of the plan. I definitely would prefer to just help my fellow coworkers out with...

  9. Forced to Return to the Floor

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in General Nursing

    Under normal circumstances, my organization would ask first if any nurses are interested in floating to other departments in need of help. However, when it's an emergency like this pandemic, they want...

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in General Nursing

    Hi, Lemon. Thanks for the reply! I'd probably lose my job if I refuse. Even worse, since we're in a state of emergency during a pandemic, it's likely I'd get reported to the Board as

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi lilly-may, sorry for the super late reply. It actually worked well for me in the end. I left bedside and got a nurse analyst position in the same hospital. I enjoy my work for the most part now....

    So you've left nursing for good? I'm still trying to figure out how to get

  15. New grad, hate nursing! Feel like quitting!

    harumi22 replied to harumi22's topic in First Year After Licensure

    It's been a year working at this hospital, and my feelings haven't changed. In fact, it's gotten worse. They constantly pile more paperwork on top of the paperwork we already have. It's getting too...

    harumi22 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm a new grad who's been working on a medsurg ward for 8 months, and I'm burned out. I hate almost everything about nursing; hated it since nursing school. I saw the signs but ignored them. Now I'm...

    harumi22 replied to cocoa_puff's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for taking the time to give me some advice. Really appreciate it. I've been thinking of working a lower-paying job (outside of nursing) while I think about what I should pursue when I return...

    Hey, I enjoyed reading your post. It made me feel like I wasn't alone. I graduated from nursing last year and have been working as an RN for 7 months on a medsurg floor. The problem is, nursing is...
