I'm betting that this particular post will cause a stir. But I'm curious which nursing profession is considered to be the coolest or most exciting or over all glamorous job in the nursing field. Is it Flight Nursing, TCVPO, Cath Lab, ED, etc.
Don't ask me why I'm just wondering.
I'm a midwife; the very epitome of a glamorous profession. It's all cute babies and adoring happy families and cuddling, at least that is what most wannabe midwives think lol.
There is plenty of that, but also grief and adrenaline and blood and guts. Late nights, painfully long labors, checked out fathers, babies abandoned in the NICU, deeply mourned stillbirths, desperately unwanted pregnancies, abuse and neglect. And you get to help your patients through all of that mess. It really is the most terrible, wonderful job.

Haven't seen you 'round these parts in a while; good to see you again!
I vote for a nursing job that pays my bills and gives me vacation days to go exploring places.As far as glamorous, I like that I can wear my Dansko's with any outfit and somehow make it work. - That is galm for you.
Best answer; to add: I have a Dansko clog collection that could get me into Vogue or Glamour.
I don't have the option to sent private messages :-/ but I'd really like some advice in how/where to get a job like this! I don't even want the 100k/yr (I mean obviously I do) but I would just love to work from home. I feel like I've googled and searched until I have gone cross eyed. Maybe I'm missing what I should be looking for?
