[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the type of nursing and where you work. A floor nurse in a hospital has to work nights and weekends and call. You can work your way up in seniority so you get first pick, but you still have to do it. But, there are other nursing jobs. As an in-home nurse, or in a non-emergency specialty like PT, you have more flexibility. I know experienced nurses with two and three part time jobs that they string together for maximum flexibility. Nursing is hard work, physically and emotionally. You deal with a lot of crappy people. It requires a license that needs to be renewed by exam, and these days most nurses have grad degrees. I'd recommend it to my daughter, but not sure I'd recommend it as a new career to someone with kids. [/quote]
