It is wonderful you have a desire to help others. Nursing is a wonderful and fulfilling career but it is very challenging especially in today's world of health. I would suggest talking with a nurse who can give you an insight into their daily work expectations and the challenges they face to help determine if you want to pursue this career path. I also suggest speaking with a guidance counselor regarding options that are available to you. Another option that was available prior to the pandemic was volunteering at a local hospital. I am not certain all hospitals have resumed this type of program but it is a good way to see how a hospital is run and to interact with patients. Good luck in your decision.

Nursing is a rewarding career. There are many options where and when you can work, for example hospital, clinics, insurance company, home care. Hours can be flexible from day, evening or nights. I would see if you can find a volunteer position to see if you enjoy working with the sick, its not for everyone.
