How do I know if I should become a nurse

Do you find yourself the first person to help someone? Your friend is depressed or not feeling well, and you feel it too? You hate to see people in pain?
I was always the one taking care of family members, or trying to help if they were in a pinch.
One day a nurse noticed this trait about me and suggested nursing school. I never looked back. That was 18 years ago.

Hi Jacky, Try before you buy---Best bet is to volunteer in a Senior Center or hospital. You'll see up and close what CNA-- Certified Nursing Assistants do and RN--Registered Nurses do on a day to day basis. Even if you only volunteer a couple hours on the weekend, you will "know". Good luck!
