The demand for qualified and skilled nurses never diminishes but continues to grow with the expansion of health care facilities. Apart from jobs in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, orphanages, old age homes, there is also scope for private practice. With the expansion of educational and training institutions in nursing, the demand for teachers is also increasing. Nurses spend much of their time on their feet, either walking or standing. Nursing is also an emotionally demanding job, involving long and strenuous working hours. They are often exposed to health hazards. In many organizations the salary levels are very low. For those who feel that caring for the sick and disabled is the motto in life, they will find the profession satisfactory and more often than not financially rewarding as well.
