What type of nurse will I become?


As of now I’m not sure what the future holds for me as a nurse or which road I will choose in the end. The only thing I can do now is imagine myself in the different nursing fields. Will I be a nurse that works in paediatrics? A paediatric nurse is a nurse that loves children and protects them in their first stages of life. Will I be an emergency nurse? An emergency nurse loves to be on top of her feet and on the go 24/7 in the middle of all the medical emergencies. Will I be a geriatrics nurse? A geriatrics nurse is a nurse that is concerned about diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases within older adults. Will I be a palliative nurse? A palliative nurse is a nurse that tends to the relieving or soothing of the symptoms of a disease or disorder. Who knows where these four years will lead me, but I cannot wait to find out!

Very interesting post! It's exciting to think about what the future holds. I myself see myself as a public health nurse, but who knows, maybe I'll change my mind. I think an ER nurse would be a very exciting path!
