Is it because of their cute uniforms?


Or because their parents want them to be a Nurse.
Because they love taking care of the sick.
They believe in health Promotion and Disease Prevention.
Or because of Job Security?
Okay because they will get good health insurance and good Benefit Package.
Simply because you want to work in the hospitals.
Is it because they could interact with so many different people.
Or you want to influence change and become different than before.
Or you want to be the agent of change.
Because you want to be knowledgeable about health and Pathophysiology.
Because you want to be Healthcare Professional.
No matter what is your motivation,I encourage you to find your niche and make sure that you LOVE what you are doing.Because Nursing is great but sometimes emotional draining and could be Challenging depending on your areas of specialization.
