Psych or OR

I am starting my preceptorship in September and will hopefully be working soon after that, but I can't decide if I want to pursue O.R. or psych. I am currently a CNA on a dementia unit. I have experience shadowing both and the thing that will make the difference for me is the NYC market. Which nurse enjoys a greater lifestyle outside of work. I'm talking about demand, salary, benefits, and vacations.

    There are no demonstrable differences- what one has outside of work is up to the individual, not the job. Salary and benefits are pretty standard within a hospital and mainly dependent upon length of service.

    Choose what you are interested in. If OR is intriguing- do it. It does not lock you into a career track.

    OR sounds horrible to me, but I'm not you. What do YOU want?
