... There are many levels of nursing and many ways of receiving an education for each level.
The levels of nursing start with a simple Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) who has completed a one-year nursing program. ... An RN can be a graduate of one of three nursing programs: an Associate degree, which is a two-year junior college program; a three-year hospital diploma program; or a four-year Bachelor of Science university program. ... According to one nursing author:
Graduates of baccalaureate programs are distinguished by the quality of mind that seeks to test solutions to problems and to cope with unfamiliar situations. ...
The biggest standard for nursing education is for the students to pass the state board examination given at the end of the degree program. ... Every nursing student should have good study skills. Nursing is not an easy major and requires a great deal of work. ...
The most important and probably the biggest part of the nursing education is based upon receiving as much experience as possible. A nursing student will get the experience through his or her clinicals. ... Not only do they perform techniques used in everyday nursing but they also start from the very bottom and learn to appreciate the persons working under them. ... Knowing the ins and outs of nursing is very important to understanding a patients needs and feelings are even more essential. ... In nursing performance is everything and if one nurse is confident in his/her work all the others will too. “The rewards you reap in nursing are usually in direct proportion to the effort you put forth” (Heron 34). ... Positive attitudes widen the field of nursing because more and more creativity is going into technology. ...
No matter what it takes hard work and dedication to becoming a nurse, the constant care of individuals, and fast pace technology, starts as soon as a student hits the classroom. “Among the major professional health occupations, nursing has experienced one of the most rapid rates of expansion” (Lerner 227). ... It is hard work but the rewards and overflow of satisfaction are worth every minute.
