Which job is more busy being a Nurse or a Physical Therapist?

Nursing. Physical therapy can somewhat take their time and focus solely on one patient at a time, where nurses have to be able to multitask. Nurses are constantly on the run taking care of many patients at the same time, answering call bells, dispensing meds, charting, talking to doctors, the list goes on and on.

Either one can be extremely busy, but I'm guessing that a nursing would be more strenuous overall.

Nursing, you don't have to worry about graveyard shifts, because people don't do physical activities at night

I wanted to say it would depend on where you work, but, that wouldn't matter. Physical Therapist, work on you getting as close to your body's normal performance, in a gradual process.
Nurse plan/evaluate, rehabilitate/nurse to health, on a 24 hour basis, where physical therapists may not.
and nurses cover a much more wider field in health care,there are so many dozens and dozens of different departments to work in. Nurses can work under a physician, or even have their own clinic schedule. They work longer hours by far, are more versatile, and make sure orders are carried out, they actually run departments.

How's that, for nurses?
