I have been contemplating a nursing career for a while now. I finally gathered up enough courage to take the next step. I was shocked to find out the reality of the nursing career field right now.
I guess I was just unaware like most people that jobs are scarce! I thought we were always short on nurses.
But now I realize we're short on experienced nurses and job outlook for new grads are grim...
I don't want to give up yet... should I??
I was just wondering if anyone could give me some advice... I haven't done any of the pre-req classes yet... only the few that'll transfer over from my BA degree... is it a good idea for me to give up and look for something else now, before wasting my time getting the degree and ending up unemployed?
do you think the economy will pick up enough to turn the job situation around in three years or so?
Just seeking some wisdom before making the commitment...
