The Downsides of a Career in Nursing
Theres always been a demand for nursing, especially in developed countries. This is why labor migration on the field of nursing is always high from developing countries like those in Asia. Although, nursing does offer a lot of benefits the downsides of a career in nursing may not be always known or are not highlighted for people, like college students, to consider.
There are a number of reasons why people get attracted to becoming a nurse. Those in developing countries chose a nursing career to find jobs in the US, Canada, or Europe where the pay is a lot higher than what they will be receiving if they stayed on their home country. That is one of the ultimate goals of people who take nursing courses: to get rich, as fast as possible. Or at the very least, have more than enough money to support themselves, and their families back home.
Others chose nursing as a career because they get to help people. They love the interaction with people, with their patients, and even their colleagues. They love that feeling of personal satisfaction every time they help a patient. The bonding they get is what they see as one of the fulfilling benefits of the job.
Another, issue is job security. Because nurses are in demand, one will have the opportunity to work practically anywhere provided, of course, that they pass whatever licensure exams required. The employers themselves are becoming more liberal and flexible in treating nurses schedules, and employee benefits. They know they need good nurses so they make the schedules as flexible as possible and provide great health benefits especially if youre working in a hospital.
Theres also always an opportunity to learn more, because nurses can specialize in various fields like doctors as well. This means you can always more to another field if you feel stiffened by your current specialty or if you just felt bored.
However, depending on where youre coming from, you might want to quit or not continue nursing because of several downsides that fail to agree with your values, standards, and work ethics.
Although, the schedule in hospitals is quite flexible, nurses are always required to come in during the holidays. The hospital doesnt sleep and doesnt close. The number of staff should always be adequate enough to meet the hospitals demands. Your holidays will often be spent in the hospitals with the patients rather than your own family. You can be assigned on days and nights and weekends, so be prepared for that.
Another thing, even though nurses do have fun with colleagues and patients alike, the scenario is not always like that. Being around with sick and even the dying might get to you causing some psychological or emotional trauma which will take time to heal. Thats another thing that you need to be prepared for.
Also, dont think that getting there is easy. Nursing courses are often difficult and require medical knowledge, keen sense of observation, ability to react decisively and logically for oftentimes they are part of a team whos responsible for peoples lives. The responsibility is huge and should not be taken likely.
Some hospitals and even doctors provide the downsides of a career in nursing. Hospitals and doctors treat nurses like their secretaries, not acknowledging their efforts. There are doctors that act like that, unfortunate as it may seem.
But that the reality that nurses have to face in attending their everyday duties and responsibilities.

Nursing, a Second Career
It is never too late to learn something new. This is the reason that some decide to go back to school to enroll in a new course or even pursue a masters or doctorate degree. If you have the desire to help people, perhaps you should consider nursing as a second career.
Nursing is a noble profession because you are able to help a patient recover from an injury or illness. It enables you to think about problem and how to solve it so you dont just follow the doctors orders.
To become a nurse, you have to go back to school to learn about biology, chemistry and a few other subjects that will help you understand how you are able to help a patient when you get the chance to work in a clinical setting.
Given that there are more 1,500 programs all across the United States, you should do some research about the school you plan to enroll in. Some of the things you should consider are how much it costs, the curriculum they use and if they are accredited by the nursing board.
For those that cannot afford tuition, they can apply for aid, a loan or scholarship if this is offered by the school. If you still want to work while studying at the same time, you can ask if there are part time courses available or classes held at night.
Once you graduate, you will have to pass the state licensure exam and if things look good, you may now apply for work in a hospital or clinic.
If you are able to stay as a nurse for a number of years and want to advance your career further, you can do so by enrolling in advance courses. This will allow you to specialize in one field of nursing and become head of a group of nurses or work as a consultant, educator, instructor or researcher.
Shifting to a career in nursing may be frightening at first because you are stepping outside your comfort zone and moving into the unknown. But if this is really what you want, surely you will do your best to hurdle over these blocks and succeed in this endeavor.
Studies have shown that a lot of people decide to shift to nursing because of the money you can make. If this is your primary reason, you shouldnt even bother because chances are, you wont be staying here for the long term.
To succeed, you must have the desire to help people because you are in a life saving business where mistakes could mean the difference between life and death.
Aside from nursing, those of you who dont want this job but still want to help patients can take on other positions. You can find work as a pharmacist, technician or lab assistant who also plays a role in the hospital as they work with doctors and nurses.
How well you are as a nurse is entirely up to you. Naturally, there will be people there to help you out but it is your decision to take their advice or to take another step forward. If you are not happy in this new career, dont be afraid to shift to another.
After all, you did it before and you probably still havent found the kind of challenge that you are looking for.

The Different Career Styles in Nursing
The type of nursing course you take will determine your career because of the kind of training you get. For instance, those who graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing will automatically become resident nurses once they also pass the state licensure exam or NCLEX.
Resident nurses straight out of college will report to a resident nurse preceptor. This person is the one that will give them their respective assignments and the RNs in turn will show them their skills in assessing the needs of the patient so a plan can be developed and implemented.
After years working as an RN, you can go back to school and attain a higher degree so you too can become a resident nurse preceptor in charge of a wing or find work elsewhere like working as an instructor in nursing school or as a researcher for a private company.
Students who dont want to study for four years can earn a degree in half the time by getting an Associate Degree in Nursing also known as AND or a hospital diploma.
For the associate degree, you can soon find work in a health facility as a licensed practical nurse or as a licensed vocational nurse. In the chain of command, this person reports to the registered nurse whos task is to do the rounds and check on the patients blood pressure and temperature. They may also be called upon to get a blood sample.
Depending where you decide to work, you may also be employed as the personal assistant of a physician. At this job, you welcome patients that visit the clinic, handle clerical duties and other things that may be ask of you by the doctor.
The salary difference between an RN and a LPN is quite big. If you want to earn more, you can go back to school part time or full time so you can graduate with a BSN.
Those who take the hospital diploma can find work as a nursing aide. Your job is to escort the patient when he or she needs to be examined by the doctor, serve the meals, bathe and dress the patient as well as clean the room. You dont need a license to do that kind of work but if you want to earn more, perhaps after a few years you can go back to school and work for a BSN or AND.
When you get your nursing degree, you can either work full time or part time. Full time nurses work 40 hours a week while part timers work 20 hours a week. Resident nurses who have a lot of opportunity may even find employment on a contractual basis which allows them to travel at the same.
Nursing is high demand for a lot of reasons and one of them happens to be due to the shortage of qualified personnel. If you think that nursing will be good for you in the long term, get into it for the right reason and money is shouldnt be one of the motivators as this will come in later.
You must have the desire to help those who are in need because if you are happy with what you are doing, you will be successful regardless of your position in the healthcare system.

If this is your passion, then another benefit is that it will make you happy and fulfilled. Those factors are very important in choosing one’s career path. You will only last and can only make it a long term career if you are satisfied with how things are going the day you start plunging in. This can also be called a calling, like those of the priests and nuns. You will not last if you weren’t really called for the profession.
Considering all those benefits of a career in long term nursing, you should be able to gauge whether you can fit in. Forget about gaining weight. There are more to nursing than being concerned with the extra pounds.
