I can't handle bedside nursing, but I am a new grad!
I left nursing for the financial sector; I knew 6 months in that I was not fit for bedside or any type of nursing for that matter. I had 3 mouths to feed including myself and I stuck in there for 15 years and I thought " I can't take this anymore!” I now have a holistic business and am in finance. Easy transition because I was always fascinated with money and how it worked for us and not the other way around. Do what's in your Heart. Divine Feminine is key. I wish you the best. It's Groovy if you want to DM me?

VA hiring process 2020
Hello Ya'll! I applied to the VA NYC via Indeed and was called by a recruiter the next day! A few days went by and I was asked to finish VetPro within 3 days on this past Saturday night; I finished it after a few hours. Couldn't wait until today; I called the recruiter to alert her that I was finished with VetPro and she was actually surprised. She just said that she "will look into it," I thanked her, and we hung up. My initial question was if there was a timeline until I am hired; I am a dialysis RN and I received an astronomical COVID pay rate for 4 months (I hope that I could stay there. I am also a disabled vet).

Disabled Vet/ Nurse: Denied for Vocational Rehabilitation
Thank you, so much. I have been through so much; I cried at the meeting with the VR counselor. So, a letter from my psychiatrist sounds like the best plan.

Disabled Vet/ Nurse: Denied for Vocational Rehabilitation
Hello Everyone! I must say that I became a nurse to escape and abusive husband and be financially stable with my kids after I divorced him. I left him before I graduated and lived in a homeless shelter; where I also graduated. Long story short, as soon as I started the clinical practice, I knew that this was not my dream profession; I wanted to become an attorney. As the years passed, I began to have panic attacks, became overwhelmed, suffered with anxiety, nightmares,and had horrible depression. I had to work; I had to feed my children; I just "dealt" with it...until I had a nervous breakdown...and became homeless. " Why don't you go into another part of nursing? Why did you ...nursing is so...." is what I constantly heard from my Voc Rehab Counselor; I was denied. I currently have a lower back injury (workers comp) and stopped working 2 years ago. I am medicated and my mental health has improved,tremendously, which made me apply for Voc Rehab. Has anyone qualified for Voc Rehab and had a negative result because they were a nurse? Thanks for reading.
