which is more profitable: OT or side PRN?

Hi everyone. I work FT at ED right now, but thought about making extra $$$ at my old obs unit doing comparably hell lot a easier work as PRN, but then though, what if I make more doing OT at the ED job? There are ample amt of +$10/hr bonus shifts that I can do as OT at the ED, or I can ask my former manager to use me as PRN at older unit, but as I never held PRN position, I don't know how much the pay usually is. Anyone care to let me know please, I will greatly appreciate! You are awesome.
At my old hospital, it was way more profitable to pick up OT. We could pick to shifts with $200 shift bonuses and once you added in overtime the nurses were making $600/shift as new grads. But the floor was crazy, and no one could consistently work 60-72 hours there every week, or they'd lose their minds, so most people has a second job and just worked OT around the holidays. Financially profitable can me mentally detrimental.

In theory, it's more profitable to pick up OT since it's paid at a higher rate (time-and-a-half to double-time).In actuality, I find I can get far more side PRN opportunities than I can get OT opportunities. Depending on where you work and how well staffed it is, your mileage may vary.

Quote from tarotale$200 bonus for a shift? now that is some serious bonus, but I doubt my shift will offer anything even remotely close to that.
