Occupational Therapy after Nursing.

[Babyroobs]

Has anyone left Nursing to train as an Occupatinal therapist? Some information I found online suggests if you have a RN Qualification there may be a fast track way to do this. I have a RN Qualification ( traditional type training) with 30 years Nursing experience and a degree in Health & Community Studies. I am also 46 years old, would this be considered too old to re-train.? I have had enough of nursing and desperate to quit. Any help from anyone who has done this would be much appreciated , or any other suggestions of careers after Nursing. Thankyou.

I'm watching this with interest.
My impression of the OT staff on my ward is that they work hard, but don't have anything like the same stress.
Think I'm too old to retrain though........
