Did the opposite but sometimes really miss working at bedside. Your going to make a lot less. If you go into nursing, expect to have to endure night shifts on a general med for a few years. You have to work weekends and holidays. You’ll see a lot of eye-opening things that are a jolt of reality. But-

1. Your shift ends, you go home. No work with you.
2. You get to see the difference daily in people’s faces when you show kindness and caring.
3. You will develop friendships with co-workers that are more like family.
4. You’ll truly understand what a life vs. death situation is and it ain’t a power point with a grammatical error.

Good luck!

In terms of comp, what kind of nursing track would be the highest pay (anastesiology, oncology etc.) Is the pay range driven by other things (education, facility etc.)?

If you are going that path, I would highly recommend CRNA.
