Career as Registered Nurse?

We Answered:

Phlebotomy (giving medications intravenously or taking blood) is a class that you will have in most, if not all, medical fields, and trust me, you practice enough to know where to stick, and how to stick. If you want to ease into it, perhaps you should take CNA training. It's a course for Certified Nurse Assistants, and it would help you decide whether you want to go further into the field, so try something else. It's less expensive than RN schooling, and takes less time. You get your feet wet in the field, and you'll know right away whether you want to do medical, or if you're just not into it. If you are thinking that RN is easier than Doctor of Medicine, you aren't completely right. RNs do practically everything that Doctors do, they have to know both the technical terms and every day names of medicines, they have to know how much to give to patients, they give vaccines, take blood, do vitals, holter monitors, minor surgeries, suture removal, practically anything you can think of. And it's NOT easy. I've worked in a doctor's office since September, and though I'm the file clerk/receptionist/medical records administrator, I watch the Nurses run their behinds off all day long. At the end of the day, it makes you feel good knowing that you help so many people, but don't think that it's life on easy street! The medical field is an amazing field to get into as long as you're willing to work hard at it. Good luck, and I hope you find exactly what you're looking for :-)
