Registered Nurses: Nursing the Population Back to Health

Picture
By Angie Miller

Sympathetic? Observant? Enjoying interacting with people? Like helping others?

Registered nurses are a branch within the health field. The growth for registered nurses in the next ten years is at a much faster than average growth of 21% or more. The median salary of a meteorologist in the United States is $65,950. From being the bridge between patients and doctors to providing and altering care, nurses are the glue that holds together our health-care system.

Work environment for registered nurses is usually hectic and not set in stone. Home health and public health nurses must travel for their work. Nursing care facilities and hospitals provide 24-hour care, which means registered nurses may work nights, weekends, and holidays. Often registered nurses are subject to standing, walking, and being on their feet for long periods of time. Generally registered nurses monitor and update records for patients, interpret diagnostic tests, alter treatment plans, as well as assessing individual and patient needs.

Education for registered nurses is really wide variety from natural sciences, mathematics, English, and language. Registered nurses are usually required to have an Associate’s degree, a Bachelor’s degree, or a diploma from a nursing program. In addition to a degree, registered nurses must pass an examination to become a licensed nurse.

Personality skills that are important for registered nurses include caring, compassionate, detail-oriented, and exceptional communication skills.

Similar careers to registered nurses are critical care nurse, pediatric emergency room nurse, and ambulance nurse.
