I want to be a nurse but in case it doesn't work out for me.... I would like a career where I will always have a job despite whether the economy is bad or good. I would love a career helping others and with great pay. Are there any careers in the medical field that's not hands on (bedside care) such as (pharmacy) where you're helping others and in contact with people on a daily basis or are there any careers out there period helping others with advancement and good pay? I just want a career I love with helping others and making a difference in their lives while learning more new things and advancing in my career as well. I want a career where if there's a govt shutdown and the economy, my career will not be affected by it. Any suggestions would be of great help!!!!

Hi all, I am new to this website but I just had a few questions regarding becoming a nurse. I currently am not in school. I want to do nursing as a career but I don't want to do bedside nursing. I just read a few posts and I see a lot of people saying they're exhausted and burn out and cry on the way to work (something I don't want a part of). I know I want my BSN but I also want my MSN afterwards and don't know if I should choose NP or CRNA? I believe that with either profession they prefer for you to have bedside experience which I will do to get to where I ultimately want to be in my profession... I have also considered being a travel nurse once I get my BSN but I know they also want you to have bedside experience. I'm wondering would I be able to get a job a new graduate nurse in an office or clinic rather than a hospital??? also, can you be a traveling nurse practitioner?
