2 What is a Nurse? A person trained to care for the sick or infirm, especially in a hospital. Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life.

3 What do Nurses do? Perform physical exams and take health histories Provide health promotion, counseling and education Administer medications, wound care, and numerous other personalized interventions Interpret patient information and make critical decisions about needed actions Coordinate care, in collaboration with a wide array of healthcare professionals Direct and supervise care delivered by other healthcare personnel like LPNs and nurse aides Conduct research in support of improved practice and patient outcomes

4 Where do nurses work? Registered nurses (RNs) constitute the largest healthcare occupation, with 2.6 million jobs. About 50 percent of RN jobs are in hospitals. Nurses also work in: nursing homes, medical offices, ambulatory care centers, community health centers, schools, and retail clinics. They also provide health care in more surprising locations such as camps, homeless shelters, prisons, sporting events and tourist destinations.

5 Although the majority of nurses are women, nursing is a also great career choice for men.

6 How do I become a nurse? The three typical educational paths to registered nursing are: A BS degree in nursing (BS or BSN), or An associate degree in nursing, or A diploma from an approved nursing program and Pass the NCLEX-RN licensing exam (National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses)

7 Why is it so hard to get into nursing school? There is a high demand for nursing education. Nursing is a popular career choice. There are a limited number of accredited nursing programs There is a limited number of instructors State boards of nursing require a low student-to-instructor ratio in clinical settings Admission requirements are high because nursing programs require strong academics, especially in the sciences
