Is Nursing for you?

If you’re wondering whether Nursing is the right path for you, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Do I enjoy working with people?
  • Am I interested in disease prevention and/or health promotion?
  • Do I consider compassion an important part of health care?
  • Do I have an interest in health care policy?
  • Am I a good problem-solver and critical thinker?
