Msw vs. Nursing?Rating: (votes: 0) In your opinion especially for those who have don't both careers and switched to the other. Which one do you feel is a better career, whether it's in terms of pay, job growth, opportunity, satisfaction, etc. I'm in a constant debate of going back and forth between wanting to be a psych nurse or a mental health social work. Is there a lot of overlap within these two lines of work? Social work pay is garbage compared to nursing. No contest in that department. Comment: Quote from DrangerSocial work pay is garbage compared to nursing. No contest in that department.Comment: Quote from Nursetobe25Even with increased experience?Comment: The only MSWs I know are therapists; They probably make more than those who are in case management.The only "overlapping" that may be possible is in case management; however the case managers that I worked with were RNs. I have worked with social workers in LTC; but there really isn't any overlapping; most have no idea the realm of nursing at all.Comment: Quote from DrangerYes, it's not even close. I have no idea why people go into SW unless they REALLY like peopleComment: Quote from Nursetobe25So from this I gather that you would recommend nursing over social work lolComment: Quote from DrangerI recommend neither to be honest but I did nursing
