2. How to quit a job I've had for under a year...

   Aliceozwalker posted a topic in General Nursing

   Some of you may remember me from some of my previous posts. I have been a nurse for about 2.5 years now and have hated most of it. I began in an inpatient unit while I did hospice and then switched to a clinic. I was very hopeful that the new clinic ...

3. Should I quit Nursing?

   Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in Career Support

   Thank you all for such well thought out and written perspectives. I'm sorry I haven't written back in such a long time, honestly, the only way I could cope was not thinking about the future for a while. I am a huge introvert and do have social anxiet...

4. Should I quit Nursing?

   Aliceozwalker posted a topic in Career Support

   Hello. I have been in nursing for a little over two years and I'm going to be honest... it has been a truly terrible experience. So much so that I'm reconsidering the profession. To be fair, some if not most of this is definitely on COVID. But everyo...

5. I got a clinic job! Thank you for all the wonderful advice on here.

   Aliceozwalker posted a topic in General Nursing

   Hi everyone, I know that some people have been following my posts, and I did mention that I would post when I had some news. Five weeks ago a full-time position was posted for the clinic at the hospital I work at (hospital pay, 9-5, Mon-Fri). I ...

6. Threats made against nursing staff?! :(

   Aliceozwalker posted a topic in General Nursing

   I am so sorry to be posting again so soon but a situation just happened that has led to me considering leaving both nursing jobs. This job is definitely the better of the two under normal circumstances. All staff members at my community job rece...

7. Trying to follow everyone's advice but still no luck

   Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

   Thank you so much for always responding, SmilingBluEyes and LibraNurse27. ? My parents are really pushing for me to stay part-time until December unless I find another position. At that point, I will have completed two years at the hospital and spent...

8. Trying to follow everyone's advice but still no luck

   Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

   I wish my anxiety was getting better the more experienced I got but if anything it feels like it's gotten worse. This also puzzles my psychologist but it could be that the more experienced I get, the more responsibility and difficult patients I get, ...

9. Trying to follow everyone's advice but still no luck

   Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

   I actually don't live in the US. Where I live has universal free healthcare, so often nursing rates at the hospital are set based on the area across hospitals. In short, all hospitals and every unit make the same in a particular area. This has begun ...

10. Trying to follow everyone's advice but still no luck

    Aliceozwalker posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hello! I post fairly regularly on this site but haven't posted in about three weeks. I figured would make a post as to where I was at since there were some concerns. As several members suggested before I followed up with both my MD and psycholo...

11. 8-10hr nursing jobs that give hospital paygrade

    Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

    I should probably re-frame that. ? I would maybe consider going back to school if I had something else I strongly desired to do. But since I have anxiety and social anxiety I always really struggled in figuring out what to do. I actually took a super...

12. 8-10hr nursing jobs that give hospital paygrade

    Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

    Believe it or not, my hospital job has a required course for my unit that is not covered by the hospital. So you have to pay for it out of pocket. 0.0 It is actually a source of irritation for many of the people on my unit, they and I feel that if th...

13. 8-10hr nursing jobs that give hospital paygrade

    Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

    I actually have almost two years of experience. ? But yeah not enough for an educator role, the hospital I am requires at absolute lowest 5 years.

14. Feeling close to the end of my rope...

    Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

    I honestly and truly wish school nursing was more of a thing in my country (I don't live in the States). ? I have looked and apparently, there isn't a school nurse position in over 150km.

15. 8-10hr nursing jobs that give hospital paygrade

    Aliceozwalker replied to Aliceozwalker's topic in General Nursing

    Both of the courses I am currently taking are required for each one of my jobs. So I had to take them to stay in my current roles. The one in September is a recommended course for the hospice, and they offered to pay for me to take it provided I stay...
