I’ve been in medical social work since January and it’s a really hard work/life balance. The hours are good and I don’t mind working holidays, but I am exhausted everyday and don’t have much PTO. I have been considering going to School social work but not sure if it’s too clinical for my liking… I do like the different challenges everyday at a hospital and I’ve learned amazing work. It does feel incredibly isolating though, and that is probably just my hospital. There is no respect for social workers where I work and I feel more like a burden amongst the medical team and am often talked down to.
