Since having my two children (one is now a toddler and the other is an infant) I've realized I would love to become a nurse. I've always had a special place in my heart for children, the elderly, and animals. I love caring for someone else and helping out. IT makes me feel accomplished. I love being a mother even when it's tough, and I am passionately dedicated.
I'm currently in school, though it is for a pre-medical degree (bio-chemistry) and I'm considering switching to nursing (BSN) with a goal of becomming a CRNA. I'm alittle hesitant as it seems recently, EVERYONE is going to school for nursing, even people I would never have considered to be nurse material. I think this is because they hear about "the nursing shortage" and the paycheck for that career, which I understand as someone in a family of 4 living off about $2,500 a month. But I feel that by the time I finish, there will be 0 job openings for me and an overabundance of new grad nurses.
Should I continue into nursing or find another feild? Any tips or advice for someone considering? I appriciate the help.
