    Posted: 24 May 2011 at 16:41
Hi Everyone,
I am a third year student nurse, and, am sorry to say, not really enjoying it anymore.
 
I love the essence of the job but do not like the environment in which you work in.
 
The majority of RN's I see are so stressed, they never seem to have enough support, time or staff, and then I think: "Do I really want to be doing a job like this with this much stress?"
 
So, I was wondering, Social Work really appeals to me, does anyone have any experience with making this career change, how do I go about it, etc?
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
