I am a registered nurse with 8 years experience (1 tele, 3 occ. health, 4 homecare). I've had it with the on call requirements and the high caseload. Like all other RNs out there that may be looking for a new job, it is a little overwhelming with so many choices. I would like to hear from some of you ER nurses on what the job is like, how the support is from docs and coworkers, how you rate the delivery of care compared to working on a medical floor? Thanks for any input.

I have worked in home care as a RN for 4 years. I have never had any issues with patients and family members in having me as a nurse. You have to remember that patients don't have the right to be sexist in choosing who they will accept nursing care from. I always think of what a female nurse might say if a patient would refuse care just because they didn't want a female taking care of them!
