Hello all, I am thinking that patient care may not be for me. I love caring for people but my anxiety is so high all the time because I'm so afraid that I am going to do something that harms someone or even just causes them to have a bad experience. I currently work in L&D and have been for a little over a year. I keep thinking the anxiety is going to get better, but it seems to be getting worse. So, I'm curious about other nursing options. What are some specialties that don't require patient care? Or at least areas where I'm not in a position where I have to save a life. I'm not an adrenaline junkie, I love my patients and I love caring for people so I know nursing is what I want to do, but I do not handle stressful situations well. Any advice?

Hello all:) I graduated with my BSN in 2014 and had a baby 3 days later. I did get my license but chose to postpone my career for a while to stay home with my baby. My question is, will it be difficult for me to find a job since it's been so long since I graduated? Thanks in advance!
