Anything but nurse anesthetist. I just can't. I need a game plan for my career to not end up 20 years from now still doing what I'm doing now for a slightly higher pay. I would really like to work less and make more, to make myself that much more valuable that my time and skill will actually be worth that much more.

Thank you so much for replying. I actually would really like to get into case management. I spoke to the nurse recruiter in my hospital about applying for a case management position and she told me I need experience in case management. I asked her how one obtains such experience and she couldn't even answer me. If anyone has any ideas on how to deal with THAT kind of nurse recruiter I would also very much appreciate it. I'm applying for a home care agency position to do part time just so that I can get some home care experience on my resume to better qualify for a case management position. Is there anything else I can do to break into case management? Thank you again for your reply and help!

Thank you so much for your reply. I have never heard of a certified nurse life care planner. I did a quick google search and all I found is there association website which does not give me much info on what they actually do. Can you give me just a quick run down on what exactly this sort of specialty entails and in what setting do these practitioners function i.e hospital, home-care, insurance... Also, what kind of experience must one have to go into this field? Thank you again for your reply and help!

Hey all, I'm a med-surge nurse with three years experience and a lot of expenses. I'm considering going for a Masters but want to be smart about it as life is not getting any cheaper. So my question is, what are the highest paying nursing specialties other then Nurse Anesthetist? I appreciate all and any input.

I guess the title says it all. Which shoes are the most comfortable for those 12 hour shifts?
