Why would you give this up??

Hello everyone! I was trying to give my friend some insight on reasons not to leave school nursing for her first bedside nursing job. She is not a part of this wonderful community so I will have to show her your responses.

She says she loves school nursing (4 yrs), but says this is an opportunity too good to pass up. I told her consider her age (44 yrs, not old just being realistic) and how hard bedside nursing is on the body, plus it is a night shift.

What are your thoughts??? :specs:

Thank you in advance!!

But that pink shell bra showing through the white top would be, so, well, you know, fetch!

Food for thought, nursej22. :)

I know but I will be super busy and it won't be the same. :(

And no fetch Wednesdays for me anymore. RNs wear navy scrubs with white tops.

They may not even want me.

I'll keep you guys posted.

I am only leaving school nursing to finish my Masters in Nursing Education and we are moving to Florida. Otherwise, I would NEVER EVER give up my job! I will cry buckets of tears when I leave in May. I will miss my wonderful staff, students and nurses I work with in my district.

At least there are waves to watch in Florida, rotsa ruck, don't be a stranger

Plus, I started the health education program at my charter school. I love teaching health. Love it. And the kids. I love the kids.

Me too! I develop and teach the Health curriculum at my K-6 school as well and have been surprised how much I love that portion of my job! It makes my days crazy sometimes but I look forward to it every day!

My kids came in for hugs today. Citing "anxiety", but they missed me.
