WHAT TO DO

Hi all!>...i have worked for the state for the past 3 yrs..it is my first job after becoming an LPN....the benefits are great and pay is the highest around here....i loved my job at first...did(still do) all kinds of skills...G/J tubes,trachs,neb txt/caths...etc..lots....plus passing meds....BUT we also as LPNS do it all....i work in a house type setting for MR,physically challenged individuals...alot of lifting,hoyer lifts..etc....we do their laundry,cooking, feeding

changing messes..etc....it is very physical and demanding at times...i only work 20 hrs..thats all i wanted is PT work..

but lately i have not been to excited about my job....i do love all the residents to death...and like i said before the benefits and pay is good....

i applied to a physicians office....it is a multiple physician office with many different docs...it is part of our local hospital...i was just wondering if anyone else works in a similar type of office?..is it hard to learn?....i do consider myself a new nurse....i havent really given IM injections...maybe 2...how do you learn how to do them in an office setting?...I know i can handle the office work..i worked as a secretary before...and i am willing to learn anything...

and another BUT....it probably is 3-4 dollars less,they do offer medical and dental/vission....up to 27 days of vaca the first year...this is fulltime too...weekends off....i work fri/sat 3-11,tues 4 hrs to make my 20....that is my schedule....and as for vaca...lucky to get it as it goes by seniority...the ones that have been there for 10+ years get their pick and when it comes to my turn to bid on vaca the days are all used up...not many available days to pick from..

what do you all think....i know this is premature as i just sent in my resume today....but just getting the feel for a different job...

thanks all!!:redbeathe
