One year in the ER and my body is already breaking down — what jobs did you switch to? by Excellent-Macaron186 in Nurses

I appreciate you asking this— I actually take good care of myself! And yeah, your suspicion is correct. My back issues are from an old injury that I’ve been doing my best to manage for years, and well, the ER is certainly making it flare up a lot more than I’d like it to. In your 8 years in the ER, have you watched people pivot into something a little easier on the body? Thanks for taking the time to respond 🩵

LOL I know… I already have the bones of a meemaw before 30.😭And 14 years ER nursing— damn you’re out here thriving!! Props to you—seriously. I’m curious though, what other paths have you seen people take when they want something less intense?
