Re: Different areas of nursing in Canada
Take a look at the health region for where you are planning on settling.
There are nurses that work with the various police departments for the child at risk teams. I'm not sure who actually employs them.
School nurses are basically gone. Nurses visit the schools from the various public health units. They are pretty sought after positions and seniority counts a lot for getting one of those jobs.
Health visitors probably fall under the spectrum of the Community Care team who do home visits.
All nurses are unionized here, so it can take a while to get what you want.
