hello everyone,

i would like to find out if someone could tell me a little bit about pediatric nursing. i want to make sure i am making the right career choice, since i hear so many horror stories about nursing. how does pediatric nursing differ from other specialties? any advice provided will be greatly appreciated.

thank you,

I am currently in Nursing School and yes it is stressful and can be difficult. There are days when I would love to quit (mostly just during lecture and tests) but when I get to clinical it makes everything seem not as bad. I love taking care of people and most of the time you can make someones day so much better. It is a very rewarding career and I love it. I can't imagine doing anything else. I will not lie it is difficult but it is worth it and so rewarding. The biggest thing is chosing a good school. The school that I am enrolled in is excellent, the instructors are great. The horror stories that you hear about instructors, we do not have any of that, all of the instructors are excellent. So, if you are able to find a good school it can definitely help relieve some of the stress. Good Luck!!
