Anyone work in Public Health?

Hi,
I have a place on a Public Health MSc (one year distance learning) and I hope to use it to change career and move into the PH field. I have been told there are lots of different areas to work in. I am quite interested in epidemiology.
I currently work in the NHS, with 20 years behind me (already have one MSc in a science subject) but the hours have been changed and we are losing lots of staff meaning I am now working many weekends, nights etc.
If you work in Public Health what do you do and do you enjoy it? My background is in infectious disease. I would like to build a career that allows me to work at home if possible but I would be happy to find something that would allow me to ditch working 3 out of 4 weekends and loads of 13 hr nights. I have children of school age and a husband who also works shifts so things need to change!
Any tips/advice would be great.
