Hi I am a education who has been thinking about going into nursing over the past year. My fiance has crohn's disease so being with him in the hospital often is kind of what made me think about going into nursing. It seems to be a great career, one that pays well, and that will always be needed. I also like that there are a zillion different areas of nursing to go into. It has been very hard for me to decide if nursing is the right thing for me. So I have a few questions.
I recently job shadowed a neonatal nurse and I absolutly loved it!! However I am still uncertain.
How do you know if nursing is for you?
Why is nursing school so hard and stressful? This makes me nervous. I am worried about flunking out, and if I can handle the stress. If anyone can give me as much info on nursing school as possible I would really appreciate it.
Do you find that nursing is a field that allows you to have a lot of time for your family? This is very important to me in a job.
Thanks so much for taking the time to anserw my questions!
PS-I apologize if I put this on the wrong board, I'm new here!
