My understanding is that traveling nurses make very good money. Obviously there’s more to life than money though.
I’m sure you don’t have to leave medicine to make good money and have a different working arrangement. There are all sorts of alternative non-nursing jobs for nurses. How do you see there’s administration, insurance, consulting, or even just continuing to search for the situation that you want.
The question is not would it be more beneficial, it’s what do you want to do? Do you want to be a nurse at all? Did you rush into it because a guidance counselor told you it’s a great career path?
I have two friends in cyber security and I could not tell you what they do but they both seem to make very good money without working very hard, but they’ve both also been computer nerds since the 90’s.
Nothing against nursing or the medical field. Just kinda wanted something a lil bit more stable. My brother got into cybersecurity and works from his apartment and get about 90k a year. Maybe a midlife crisis but thought it would be a nice change of pace and not losing that much money. And no lifting patients or dreaming of the ones who die on a daily basis.
Unsure what “stable” means but if youre looking to work from home with a nursing degree: Insurances, utilization management/review, public health, call center (Kaiser call center RNs make BANK), etc. If you want more daily flexibility in your schedule I had some friends take a paycut to do home health or hospice. Theres so many routes… And of course different jobs outside of nursing.
What’s the problem for you with nursing ?
Is it job insecurity or is it travel?

I wouldn’t be recommending insurance, but I also think you have to be a pretty bad person to work for a health insurance company.
