Not everyone believes that. I was the one mentioning the dd should state they want to be a stripper or pole dancer for the money and see what he says to nursing after that. No offense intended for any strippers or pole dancers. |
I assume what they’re saying is that that is well known, but those are paths high paying jobs, and the certification process is a very low bar so it will not be hard to build supply. Also, there’s going to be automation with anesthesiology that may disrupt the whole job market there, It’s already happening in Canada, and then could be replaced by Telehealth or stuff like that where they cook you up with someone in a low cost of living area and basically run through a huge queue of patient on the phone |
He is right |
Anesthesia will be automated???? And administered via telehealth? Huh? |
Automated anesthesia https://news.mit.edu/2023/anesthesia-technology-precisely-controls-unconsciousness-animal-tests-1107#:~:text=To%20solve%20the%20problem%2C%20researchers,drug%20propofol%20every%2020%20seconds. Sorry, text to speech dropped my NP could be replaced by telehealth, basically instead of having an appt with an NP for your routine complaint, they would have one NP processing 2x or 3x the number of patients per hour by call center type telehealth. A lot of appts are very routine, and that's the domain of the NP. |
My dad was a nurse for 25 years. Both my SILs are nurses (married to doctors). One of them is a NP.
There are many different routes for nursing, some more highly compensated than others and some require much for education. After my dad's career, I ran as far away from nursing as possible. But, it worked for him and he always had plenty of ladies around given its a female dominate profession. When he was single, we were inundated with cookies, baked treats, books for me, and other stuff. |
I work in a hospital. Nurses are absolute rockstars. They run the show and spend much more time with the patients than the doctors. |
Sure they are! They have no choice because they're literally stuck with patients and responsible for them. Doctors don't have to interact with patients like nurses do. As a nurse, I noticed that most of the doctors run away from patients ( and their families) as much as they can, because it takes a lot of mental energy to be with patients. |
My mom was a nurse and I grew up surrounded by her many nursing friends. These women were smart and dedicated at a time when the profession was undervalued. By the end of her career, wages had risen considerably and she had many career options when she wanted to leave the hospital floor. These days I think it’s a great profession because it’s always in demand. Sure they might not make a super high wage but they do better than a lot of other professions that require more education. |
I'm a dental hygienist and make $60.00 an hour. I work 9-4 Monday-Thursday. |
this is not true at all. |
nope, you're wrong. starting salaries are in that range for BSNs. |
not where i live. only the crummy hospitals hire ADNs. |
Sorry, but 36 hours a week is not working long hard hours. |
no. it is because doctors are busy. There is a lot going on behind the scenes you do not see. |
