5. OR/PACU
Percentage of satisfied personnel: 93%
OR and PACU nurses provide care to patients being prepped for surgical care. Their duties, however, aren’t limited to pre and post-surgery care. They often start working with caregivers, doctors, and family members several weeks prior to the surgery and continue to offer help until the patient is released from the hospital after surgery. While it’s a more involved specialty than some others, over 93 percent are satisfied with it, which is why it’s one of the happiest highest job satisfaction nursing specialties.
