Dear Students
The opportunities for a nurse are varied and limitless. A new professional nurse may choose between clinical practice, education, research, management, administration, occupational and industrial nursing.
Nursing occupies the largest bulk of the health care force. Healthcare industry is transforming itself day by day.
The horizon has expanded widely abroad with never ending staff shortage in Western countries, European and Middle East countries not ignoring the demands “at home”.
There are opportunities for them to become independent practitioners and clinical nurse specialists.
A nurse’s role in future will undergo rapid changes especially in the corporatized health care industry. They will become career information navigators, interpreters of health related matters, decision making facilitators, managers, customer custodians, patients empowers, critical thinkers, and info mediators who will guide patients apart from being the traditional care givers.
