Returning to nursing

I obtained my RN license in 2015.  Due to personal circumstances, I did not work in bedside positions, I worked in wellness, school setting, etc.  I left patient care to work in clinical trials (corporate office) for the last 8 years.  I would like to get back into more direct clinical type work, but not sure where to start.  Has anyone come back to nursing after an extended leave?

    But why would you want to do this to yourself? It's virtually too much work, with excessive workout, work can be so exhausting after the 12hrs that you lose out on life outside of work. The work is full on burnout. So unless you're in the Bay Area of California, where the laws are so amazing (in fact some hospitals only offer 8hr work hours & gave break nurses) or unless you're working PRN only or part time, it's not worth it. I'd stay as a clinical trials nurse or work remote nursing jobs.
