If you become an RN, maybe you can work in a clinic where your patients tend to enter and exit the place alive and well. From what I know, there's not a whole lot of death and dying that occurs in the clinic or doctors' office setting.
Other settings with lower-than average rates of death and dying include school nursing, occupational health, nurse education, management, and a few others.
perhaps postpartum, or public health could also be considered low risk with the dead body encounters....i guess hospice is out of the question, thats where I saw my first dead body, yikes.
edited- where I am located most public health nurses go on postpartum house calls for high risk families..
