I am also considering joining the Air force active duty, I graduated in 2006 and since then have been a psych nurse and would like to continue in this area. My only concern is even though I have had full time/part time hours most of the time that I've worked, I've had PRN status, because the flexibility allows me to stay at home with my kids. Will I have to be a clinical med/surg. nurse once I join or will I be able to do psych nursing in the military?
