Career in Nursing
Trained nurses help people in every walk of life. Mostly, we see nurses working in hospital settings giving care to ill patients. However, from world wide experience, it is seen that in nursing, career can take many forms apart from working in a hospital, which includes work in doctor’s chambers, clinics, schools, prisons, corporate houses, insurance companies, home nursing, counselling amongst others. Nurses help individuals from before birth to the time of death, and even help family members cope with the loss of a loved one after death. Nurses are there for almost every imaginable situation involving the health or illness of a person.
