How do you decide whether leaving bedside nursing limits future options? An outpatient role under consideration would mean better hours but much less acute care exposure. Skills would shift quickly. Curious how others weighed lifestyle versus clinical depth when moving off bedside.

I can say with 100% confidence leaving bedside does not limit future options. Having variety on my resume has actually been commented on (favorably) in the past with hiring managers and often the reason I was the candidate selected. Think about NOW, what you are needing/wanting NOW and make a decision from there. You can always go back to bedside - IF you want to.

I don't think it's as big of a deal as you think it is. You still have your skills, and in fact, you're expanding them. I know a lot of people who left bedside and ended up going back with no issues.

I agree with RN 1. I took a role in outpatient, and it has not limited any future options. Nurses are in major need right now. Do what is best for you—your options aren't going to change.

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either. Then you get an interview and they tell you it’s remote/hybrid(1-2-3days, take your pick)/on-site. So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
