I really do love what I do. Does not mean it is always easy, or there aren’t a ton of hard parts too. Have easily had some of the best and worst times at my work. I still find it incredibly fulfilling and am excited about what else I can do with it in the future.

That’s awesome !!!
I honestly do love being a nurse! It’s definitely challenging at times, but there’s nothing more rewarding than making a difference in someone’s life. The connections with patients, helping them heal, and being part of a team, all of that is what keeps me going. It’s tough, but it’s worth it (for me personally)!

It’s so rewarding !!
I enjoy my work, but the toxic environment is challenging.
Okay yes I should have gone with this answer lol
I do bedside and I honestly love what I do. I don’t aim to be a charge nurse nor do administrative work. I’ve tried Home Health/Case Manager and I can say that I like seeing the patients physically and being involved with their care clinically.

It’s good to see most enjoy what they do it’s truly sad that sometimes we love it and then are brought to really dislike what we do ! I’ve been there too !
I do love my job most of the time. Sometimes it’s gets very stressful and there is a lot of pressure but I love it. I wish it paid a little more, but there is room for advancement in the same role with just more responsibility, which I’m open to.

Yes, those moments when I'm able to help find a solution that allows a patient to take their medications, seek continuous medical care, and obtain equipment with less financial burden fills my cup every time. I don't always get that. Sometimes there just isn't a solution, but I live for the moments I can tell a patient we solved it and I am able to relieve some of their worries.
