    Thanks for making this video! I’m a second career nursing student who works on a medsurg floor as a PCT. I have realized that I think I might want to be a psych nurse. I used to be an elementary school teacher, and I had multiple kids throughout the years who should have been receiving psych services. Maybe adolescent psych is for me.

      You're very welcome. I worked mental health for years. Pediatrics, Adolescents, Adults, Geriatrics. Substance abuse, STAR. Let me know if you have any questions. It's a great field for the right nurse.
