David’s Answer
Being a nurse is not a profession for the faint-hearted. Nurses deal with life, death, and everything in between.
But the job is also considered to be one of the most satisfying, in-demand, secure, and overall best jobs in healthcare.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, nurses are responsible for assisting physicians in administering patient care, providing advice and educating patients on a variety of medical conditions, and giving advice to the patient as well as their family.
And while it might be a demanding job, it seems it's a rewarding one. A study by AMN Healthcare found 83% of nurses say they are satisfied with their choice of nursing as a career.

Dr. Frank’s Answer
Nursing is not just a job. Being a professional nurse means the patients in your care must be able to trust you, it means being up to date with best practice, it means treating your patients and colleagues with dignity, kindness, respect and compassion. It means understanding the NMC code of conduct.
