What was that thread a couple of days ago about how lovely and supportive MN was?



OP: I don't know what you need to do nursing in Scotland but when you are unhappy in a job most every other job looks better.



Some volunteering experience in a nursing alliedl area would help you see the day to day work people do in detail.

Also try to analyse what specific features you dislike about your current job. If you can identify a couple of key things which make you unhappy then it will help you to decide what would work for you in the future. It may even enable you to make changes in your current role.

For instance is it the lack of choice/control which you don't like or is it that the choices you have are roles you know you don't enjoy? Is it the people you work with rather than the work itself?



Consider also some professional careers advice - this isn't just for new graduates. An outsider can sometimes be more objective and help you make the right decision before committing to long and expensive training.



Good luck!
