I've been on med-surg for 3 years, and the 12s are really taking a toll. Considering a move to outpatient, but worried about the adjustment. Is clinic work more boring than inpatient or just a different kind of busy?

Those shifts can definitely take a toll, so I understand. I wouldn’t say clinic work is boring, but it is a very different setup. You’ll be busy doing follow-ups, preventative care, and even educating patients. It’s steadier.

Clinic work isn’t boring unless you hate routine. The pace depends a lot on the specialty. Primary care can feel repetitive, but oncology or procedural clinics can be super engaging. I miss the adrenaline sometimes, but not enough to go back to 12s.
