My husband has a disability (not on disability but has one) and he is RN. Yes it’s very stressful and yes he is perpetually in a panic mode but it was always his dream job so he is hanging on. He plans on working part time eventually as it’s getting physically hard, he already switched hospitals in 2020 due to physical demands and his doctor being unhappy about it. . Yes many options. You can also be a contractual or contingent nurse and choose what shift and what hospital to go to when they need you. Or travel nurse. There is a big shortage now. Yes it pays well but it could be brutal and I’d not go into it for the pay. Especially with covid. You have to really want to do this job. Otherwise no thanks. Huge liability, constant fear of not doing right by a patient, exhaustion.

If you are working with vulnerable population you must have an aptitude for it. How about SW?
