I admire your decision to leave. I'm on the brink of leaving nursing myself. I'm going to first try other areas before my exit. However, I feel I am running out of patience and self-control. But if...
Yep!!! I wouldn't mind working in a doctor's office and doing paperwork (PA's, calling in meds, follow-ups) WHATEVER!!! I'm truly happy you are happy. You finally found what I'm looking for-a job that...
