Hello, I am currently looking into nursing and I am wanting to understand what a nurse can do to help peoplein Overseas type settings, such as if there isnt any healthcare people around, or people cant afford to travel to or to pay to go to a hopsita...

just so you know the part about an RN not being able to be a CNA must be a state thing or something as i read something else today that talked about what an Illinois LPN didnt have to be on the NA Registry to work as one or something similiar. - jaso...
