11RN

I have been a RN for a little over 2 years now. I worked on a Med/Surg/Tele floor for a year and then did travel nursing for the 2nd year, which I absolutely loved ... well the travel aspect of it. I am starting to feel burnt out and so tired of hospital nursing. The patient ratios I have dealt with have left me feeling uncomfortable and unsafe. For example, I have had 1:9 patients on an evening shift and although I delivered safe care, I felt so uncomfortable taking on such large assignment. I really would love to get out of the hospital for at least a little while. I feel as if my mental health has been declining because I am so unhappy in hospital settings. I feel anxious before every shift. So I applied to a couple of family care office RN positions and am learning about them. I feel like I would be using a different kind of skills set and would enjoy working in a different of a setting. However my current nurse manager pulled me into her office, in summary, basically saying saying I am too young to go to an office, that I will lose all of my skills and will have difficulty going "up" from here. She says she made the mistake and hated it and doesn't want me to regret making this decision. Normally, I would go with my gut but she really made me think and now I'm having second thoughts. I just wanted someone else's opinion on being a nurse in an office. It would be a family care office. Do you enjoy office nursing? Do you feel like you would be able to go back to a hospital and be competent after working in an office? Do you feel as if you lost all of your skills? Im just torn because there are different pros and cons. I would be taking a major pay cut and apparently "skill cut", but I feel like my happiness and mental health Is more important. But now I hope I don't regret my choice.
