thank you so much for your encouragement. I have a BSN degree and planning on studying masters but i am not sure if I am going for ms degree in education or administration. There are no care plans to be made. It is just educating patients about follow up care and discharge medications and home care. I know it is a vital part too because it will prevent readmission to hospitals and having a good results in surveys. Yes, I will study and refresh my knowledge in different diseases and medications so I can be more confident in educating the patients. They told me that they will be giving me 6 weeks of training on a med surg floor so i can exactly know the process and familiarize myself with the different scenarios from admission and until discharging patients because it is totally different from LTC facilities.

thank you. i only hope that i will be able to work out my schedule so i can have both worlds. :)

do you think clinical education will also have a lot of opportunities in the future?

Since i started being an evening supervisor, I dont miss passing meds and doing floor nursing. I wanted to be an administrator or a position that is not bedside.

For the meantime, why not try home health or try personal caregivers(go to an agency) just to sustain your everyday expenses while still apply to facilities and hospitals. God is good! be strong!

try applying to nursing homes if that would interest you. Hospital employers usually requires at least some experience as a nurse and that is why it is hard to seek a job if you like to be in a hospital.

hello. I am a 28 years old, 5 years as a nurse, I was recently offered a job in 2 different hospitals. One, was a telemetry nurse, night shift in a big and top hospital in Illinois. The other one, was from a community hospital and the job position offered was as clinical education patient coordinator RN, day shift and a nursing admin category. I am really confused which one to pick because I am still young and that my only experience is being a nurse in a nursing home. I was promoted as an evening supervisor there too. I am torn which one to choose because both of it has its pros and cons. I dont want to work night shift because its not healthy for me because I tried it before. The thing is, i know its hard to be accepted in a big hospital and maybe this opportunity will not knock on my door anymore. Meanwhile, the other job offer as a pt. coordinator is like part of the administration and it works as a nurse who is educating patient upon discharge. I am tired of doing floor nursing as well but i dont want to let go of working in a top hospital and learn a lot of new skills. I need advice my fellow nurses. If i were you, which one will you choose?? thank you very much. All your opinions will be very much appreciated.
