2. What do
Nurses do?
Nurses provide patient
care and advice patients
and their families about
health concerns and rem-
edies. They are essentially
the people who look after
the patient pre and post
surgery, and support pa-
tients emotionally.
3. What Education do I need to enter this field?
To become a nurse you
have to get a diploma
course from an accred-
ited program, an
Associate’s Degree in
Nursing or ideally a
Bachelor’s Degree in
Nursing. These pro-
grams combine
theoretical
study with
practical
application as well, and
once that is completed
you have to sit for the
national licensing
examination.
The nursing license
is issued once
the exam
has been
passed.
4. Where do Nurses work?
Nurses work in hospitals, private clinics, nursing homes, in-
stitutes for the mentally unstable, and also give home
healthcare services. You will find nurses working with the
military, schools and even correctional facilities.
5. What other traits are required to be a Nurse ?
Nurses work long hours,
and are on the go constantly.
You have to be willing to
work at all hours of the day
and always have a smile on
your face. Patience and
focus are necessary, as is
the ability to console people
without getting too emotio-
-nally involved.
If you are the type who can’t
stand the sight of blood or pain, then this is not an environ-
ment for you to work in. You have to have great interpersonal
skills and excellent supervisory and organizational capacity.
6. How much are they paid?
The actual salary depends on work experience, place of
work as well as competence. However, the annual median
