The hard parts
Specific nurse-reported criticisms were not captured in the provided review sources, limiting visibility into workplace concerns
Employer research, Jul 4, 2026
Described nursing roles are highly specialized (cardiac imaging, electrophysiology, outpatient cardiology), which may not appeal to nurses seeking broader or generalist clinical exposure
Employer research, Jul 4, 2026
Some roles combine direct patient care with research protocol responsibilities, which may create competing demands on nurse time and attention

When you are unsure and everyone else is slammed, try this: if another nurse walked up and put that exact question to you, what would you tell them to do?
Someone on clinicals may say something that has you wondering if you are cut out for this. Do not take it to heart. A couple of bad days are not the profession.
