5 HOW TO BE A RN  What Registered Nurses do- provide coordinate patient care, educate patients and the public about various health conditions, and provide advice and emotional support the patients and their family members  How to become a RN- RN’s usually take one of three education paths: a bachelor’s degree in nursing, an associate’s degree in nursing, or a diploma from an approved nursing program. Registered nurses must also be licensed.

6 THE WORK  Work Environment- hospitals, physicians’ offices, home healthcare services, and nursing care facilities. Others work in correctional facilities, schools, or serve in the military.  Work Schedules- Because patients in hospitals and nursing care facilities need round-the-clock care, nurses in these settings usually work in rotating shifts, covering all 24 hours. They may work nights, weekends, and holidays. They may also be on call.

7 WORKING CONDITIONS  Registered nurses work in hospitals, physician offices, home healthcare services, and nursing homes. Others work in schools, clinics, or serve in the military.  Most RN’s work in well-lit, comforting healthcare businesses. RN’s may also travel to schools, homes, and other sites.  Some nurses may also travel throughout the US and internationally to countries where there is not a lot of medical technicians.

9 SALARY COMPARISON

10 SUMMARY Whatever I end up doing, I want to be able to take care of people. I would love to work in the medical field like many members of my family. I have always wanted to do some sort of job where I can be around people, and not stuck in an office all day.
