I am currently a critical care nurse on a cardiac floor and I work night shift. Although I love my unit, I'm not loving the hours. I have had a horrible time with sleeping and it's starting to affect my health. I can't do a traditional 12 hour day shift either because I wouldn't see my small children and my hubby can't do all of the taking and picking up from school due to his job. My question is: are there any nursing professions that keep a more traditional 7-3 or 8-5, etc. schedule in a hospital? Thank you for any advice!!
