more details >Nurses are an integral part of the healthcare service, which every individual relies upon throughout their life. Nursing positions vary greatly but all nurses provide medical care and support that looks after our health and wellbeing.
Nurses are predominately employed by the NHS or private hospitals. Schools, prisons, hospices, medical practices, the armed forces and large corporations also employ them.
Some nursing staff are employed during regular working hours, such as a GP or school nurse, but the majority of positions are within hospitals or other institutions that operate 24 hours per day.
Graduate nurses in the public sector earn approximately £19,000 a year and, with greater experience, can expect their salaries to increase by approximately £5,000 to £6,000. Private sector senior nursing consultants or specially trained nurses can earn over £40,000 a year.
Nursing roles can be demanding both physically and mentally, but the job satisfaction in knowing you've helped improve or save a persons life, can be very rewarding.
Competent nurses progress to senior staff nurses and may then become ward sisters. Some individuals choose to study for a PhD, which allows them to become involved in research or hospital management. Staff nurses may also decide to become nurse consultants, specialising in particular fields of nursing such as paediatrics or geriatrics.
Nurses are responsible for making initial diagnoses and carrying out basic procedures, such as monitoring blood pressure, inserting and removing stitches and treating wounds. Nurses also have a social responsibility in ensuring the welfare and safety of their patients, and do so by teaching them self-care techniques, as well as educating patients about their particular condition.
Training is essential to become a nurse; individuals can take a diploma or a degree course. Diploma courses usually take three years to complete, whilst degree courses may take an extra year.
Student nurses gain invaluable experience before entering a work environment, due to the fact that training is based around both theory and practical experience.
Nurses need to possess technical skills as well as certain personal skills, such as sensitivity, remaining calm under pressure, having a strong sense of duty and being physically fit.
