I am suited for this career because I know how most things are done for nursing and I have wanted to do it my whole life, I think I would be good at helping people.

Earnings I looked at the standard beginning wage and every place I searched

I got $20-25 per hour.

I would want to live any where close to my job so I wouldn’t have to travel very far.

The maximum salary you can expect would be about $26,000.

The factors that effect the salary range are where you work, what kind of nurse you are, and how long you have worked at the place.

The expenses are money for college and special training (if you need it).

changes it.

Pediatric Nursing, Psychiatric Nursing, and Industrial Nursing/ Occupational Health Nursing Those are what kind of nurses there are.

costs, commitment, and rewards influence the availability.

Nationwide stats predict trouble within the nursing profession. They also said the field lacks growth potential for those who don't go on for advanced placements.

Nursing is In-demand.

Advancement Opportunities

Staff nurses can advance to head nurse or nurse supervisor positions, nurse practitioners, Clinical nurse specialists, nurse-midwives, and nurse anesthetists, and experienced nurses can also seek management positions in health care these are the advancement opportunities for nurses.

These positions require graduate level work in nursing or health services administration.

You don’t really have to go to school for advancements, the ones that I could find.

Typical Day a typical day for a person in this job is you check a person to see if

they are sick what they have or you just check them for anything that’s not normal.

the usual hours are 8 am to 4 pm.

the best parts of the day is working with kids and making them laugh.

the most challenging? Thing would be giving the littler kids shots because most of them scream and cry.

Aptitude I am suitable for this job because I've taken care

of kids before so I’m used to it and I know what to do when they get hurt, most of the time.

The real life experience that I have had is I had to help take care of my little cousins so I’m kind of used to little kids, I loved taking care of them so that’s why I want this job.
