I wouldn’t recommend a different path entirely you can change your field . Nursing is so diverse the setting you’re in might be causing the burnout. I would recommend changing your specialty!
Ur manager is saying that so you won’t leave. 1 year is just fine depending on what you want to do
I’ve never worked in a hospital. I started at a TCU for about 2 years, did home care for about 8. The last 2 I’ve done case management at AL/memory care facilities. I love my job 95% of the time.
I think your manager is trying to get you to stay. When I started in an inner city trauma center with HUGE turnover, as a new grad, I was told by outsiders that if I worked there for 6 months I could go anywhere. I think that was pushing it a little. I heard from other experienced nurses that I wouldn’t feel comfortable in my position for at least a year, which I subsequently found to be true. When I interviewed there, the manager was so desperate for bodies, she wanted me to commit to a year. Since I had already made up my mind to stay for two, I readily agreed. I ended up staying for four and only left because they literally lost their minds with staffing (4:1 is the ratio for a tele floor, we regularly had 6:1, sometimes 7:1 and they were pushing for 8:1 when I left). My bet is that you won’t have any trouble with one year experience under your belt.
