This is extremely helpful ❤
This is extremely helpful. I'm looking to transition into more managerial, operation focus roles and this is very informative. Thank you
I really appreciate this episode and Katies input on transitioning from bedside to management. After 22 years of direct patient care I am considering management. Not sure it is for me at all. I am not sure I have the character to sustain it. I love being an "unofficial leader" as my peers see me. I love taking on the responsibility of teaching and leading others yet not having to take that home with me. Any advice to that?
I also want to know what kind of lipstick Maggie is wearing?!
Samia- thank you for sharing your story with me! Congrats on being at this for 22 years, that's amazing. I've been a nurse for almost 10 years and I've asked myself the same question about shifting to management because I think I'd like the ability to be a resource for staff while also having a more concrete schedule and less patient interaction. But I struggle with the thought of leaving shift work, too. For one thing, nothing has to be permanent. I think you should feel empowered to try it out. I would look into interim manager positions, because then you know that the position is temporary unless you choose to apply for the permanent position. I wish you all the best, I'm sure you will do great wherever nursing takes you next.
What's your thoughts on people doing a career change and getting an accelerated BSN, and becoming a nurse admin without ever being a nurse?
It can be a great option for some people! Maybe we'll do an episode on this next year.
Shouldn't happen at all.
