Nursing is a healthcare profession focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life from birth to the end of life.

Nurses work in a large variety of specialties where they work independently and as part of a team to assess, plan, implement and evaluate care.

What is the difference between majoring in Nursing and taking Pre-Nursing in college?
Q. I am looking at colleges and I want to get my BSN. What is the difference between going to a college where I can major in nursing or going to a college where I can take pre-nursing, and then major in something else (like probably some sort of science) Because some college provide nursing as a major or they have pre-nursing and you choose a different major, like a science. I don't understand the difference. I just want my BSN.

A. If you enter as a pre-nursing major, you will have to apply for the nursing program later on in your sophomore or junior year. However, you have the option of changing career paths later on if you choose to do so. If you enter as a nursing major, you should be guaranteed admission into the nursing program and graduate with a 4-year BSN degree, so long as you meet all the necessary requirements. You can only obtain your BSN if you finish off your 4-year education as a nursing major. They usually have pre-nursing so you can fulfill your prerequisites first, and they can see that you are dedicated to nursing.

What are the disadvantages of a nursing career?
Q. I am considering applying to study nursing in Australia, and I was wondering what are the disadvantages/drawbacks of this career, as well as the course? I appreciate if only nurses (preferably Australian) could answer this question. Also, I am fine with blood and guts etc, but I get a little queasy around vomit and I gag. If I decide to be a nurse, will I eventually become desensitised to this or will it be a problem throughout my career?

A. I am only a CNA in the states so I can only tell you what the job it's self requires. Here are just a few main points: 1) odd hours, usually start out on the 3-11 shift or 7pm-7am shift if they do 12 hr shifts. 2) The holidays and weekends get hard to get use to 3) You have to be mentally prepared. Patients will cuss you out for nothing, throw things at you for just walking in the room, they physically hurt you and the bad thing is that you can not do anything in response to their outbursts. Just smile and take it. Good things 1) The thank you get for helping someone 2) The smile you get when you walk in the room and them saying I'm glade to see you here 3) Knowing that you made a difference insomeoness life today. Those are just some… [cont.]

What are some great books for nursing students?
Q. I'd love to find some books that will help me remember things from different aspects of nursing, such as pharmacology, nursing skills, anatomy, etc. I've seen a couple books that had mnemonics, etc., and think they could come in very handy for me. Does anyone have any suggestions, preferably books that you actually used and felt like you benefited from?
