To nurse or not to nurse, that is the question.
Review of Nursing (General, Adult) by dynamicnurse

Advantages: Too many to view.
Disadvantages: Too many to view.

...a more general view on nursing as opposed to the others who settled on a more specific part of nursing. What does nursing involve? The care and support of people, in whatever manner they need and/ or want. This may involve basic care such as aiding in washing and dressing; or helping them to take their medication, or just by simply encouraging and enabling them to lead as independant a life as possible that is dependant on any physical/ emtional ...

Trust me I'm a nurse
Review of Nursing (General, Adult) by jo1l

Advantages: I'll think of one honest
Disadvantages: numerous

For Budding Florence Nightingales
Review of Nursing (General, Adult) by cacalala1971

Advantages: A sense you have achieved something
Disadvantages: A sense you could have achieved more if it weren't for all the bloody bearaucracy

...hours are antisocial in most nursing jobs and they pay is abysmal (a newly qualified nurse earns £15000), I couldn't imagine doing anything else. You have to have a sense of humour, (its a prerequsite when you consider the pay at the end of all your hard work, lol), be able to make snap decisions, have good organisational and motivational skills (especially at a senior level, there is nothing worse than unhappy colleagues, it reflects on everyone ...
