Hi there! Not sure if this suggestion is as relevant as others, but I would suggest looking into healthcare consulting. Though this is not necessarily a patient facing role, it generally comes with livable salaries and lots of desk work. Within healthcare consulting there are many options including health policy, disease control, and work related to increasing healthcare efficiency. Somthing worth considering!

Hey Dashara, medical device sales could be a viable option for you. I have met a lot of nurses who have went down the path of medical device sales. You already learn so much from nursing school, so you get the upper hand when you have that repository of knowledge. It is a very good paying job, but like most jobs can still be mentally and physically demanding at times. I would say this would be a great option to look into so you can still use your nursing experience, but you aren't confined to a hospital or doctors office at all times.

Nursing is such a compassionate, deeply rewarding, and much-needed profession, but it doesn't always have to be physically exhausting. If you want to care for patients while saving your energy, consider becoming a tele-health or triage nurse. In these roles, you perform patient assessments over video or phone calls to answer medical questions and route individuals to the right level of care. It allows you to make a meaningful difference in patients' lives directly from a clinic office, a call center, or even remotely from home.
