[quote=Anonymous]Nursing, medicine, and pharmacy are three very different fields. Nursing isn't a pre-medicine or medicine step down degree. Two very different types of health care. Just like people go into occupational therapy, physical therapy, rehab therapy, respiratory therapy, speech language pathology etc. Nursing is similar. It is its own profession and very different from medicine. There may be a few health care providers in nursing or other health care professions who did that as a second choice because they didn't have the marks for medicine but the vast majority of nurses, OTs, PTs etc did those professions because that was what they wanted to be. They had no interest in being a doctor - a very different career than being a nurse. I find it amusing that people think that everyone in health care wanted to be a doctor. There are lots of very bright nurses who go on to all kinds of highly successful careers - all of whom chose nursing intentionally.[/quote]
