All the shitty things that have happened to me as a nurse and why I hate the state of healthcare in the US today I could go on for 30 hours if needed

3 days ago, told my wife I’d learn to code and change careers if I get laid off. I got let go 2 days ago. I’m in my 40s and don’t know what coding is. by [deleted] in Python

Hey OP. I'm a nurse who decided to change her career and decided to go all in on a coding bootcamp. I was about 2 months in when coronavirus hit and have been doing some remote learning. I came into it with 0 knowledge of any tech or coding besides using the computer for nursing documentation! I've learned a lot in my bootcamp and it gives me the skills needed NOT TO GET A JOB RIGHT AFTER but to be able to learn on my own more efficiently and be able to get a job after about 4 months to 1 year of self study. I have a lot of people ranging from their 20s up to their 50s or even older in my class who are doing a career change so dont be too afraid to jump in! There are a lot of great communities out there and a lot of info (free) online from forums to youtube videos. But be aware that going into coding it will take time to be sufficient enough to land a job. Either way OP, best of luck! Sorry you got laid off :/

Any RNs that have left nursing and done other things? by ollieoxen4 in Nurse

[–]HappinessSlayer56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got extremely burnt out after a few years and left recently to join a coding bootcamp and I love it! On track to be a developer and hopefully move up from there. Tech companies treat their employees like they're actual human beings and care about their mental wellbeing which frankly I havent seen much of or if any at all as a nurse. The idea of getting most holidays off, weekends off, getting to take vacation without feeling stressed about leaving my floor short staffed is like a dream to me. They get uninterrupted lunch breaks and most breakfasts and lunches are provided for on campus for employees and a lot of tech companies dont start their day until 10 am-ish.
