A NURSING CAREER

          Choosing a nursing career requires a lot of studying and training, but it gives a wide range of job opportunities. To get a nursing degree will take me a minimum of four years and a lot of effort, because I have a full time job with an inflexible schedule. I know that to become a registered nurse in the United States, I must graduate from a nationally approved nursing program. In addition, I must pass a national licensing examination. Also a nursing specializations working in the emergency room, pediatrics, or oncology, require an additional qualification on top of the nursing program. However, once I graduate I will be capable to work in many different environments. A hospital is not the only place where I could find a job, but also hospices, schools, insurance and pharmaceutical companies, and, of course, physician’s offices.  Moreover, nurses have many benefits; for example, medical insurance, life insurance, and half-price tuition for eligible dependents, etc.  Nevertheless, getting a nursing degree is a long-term process, but it is worth it simply because of the opportunities and benefits that came with it.
