I've talked to another nurse about this but she told me to quit playing around. So, perhaps I should have posted this topic under nursing humor. But I'm serious, I'm about done being a nurse. I have been a nurse for almost a decade and I am one of those that is very unhappy with my career choice, no matter what unit I work at. The nursing responsibilities are killing me slowly. I have realized years ago that I have no interest in medications, calling the doctors, or delegating the techs. I am a follower, not a leader. When we are short a tech and too many nurses, I get so excited to be the tech for the shift. I love the hands on experience, I feel like I've helped them more, than passing meds then charting from a desk far away. I love being there for patients, I like talking with them, I don't mind the physical labor, and especially the the pay decrease. I just want to be happy with my job. as silly as it may sound... If i were to give up my license and become a tech, would i be hired or would I "over qualify" due to being a nurse. Does anybody know someone who did this.
