Frequently Asked Questions – Bachelor of Nursing

Every new nurse will at first perceive their first job as difficult but once they get comfortable it will become second nature to them. So to sum things up nursing has difficult aspects to it but it depends on what you perceive as difficult. I recommend finding out what you like and go with it. Your nursing clinical will really help you in making this decision.

Yes, you have a certain person you work for and this person is usually a nurse manager. Majority of nurses work under another nurse who is in a management position. Since majority of nurses work for hospitals they usually work for a health care system. These health care systems have nurse managers that hire nurse to work for their unit.

Yes! I love being a nurse. I love the fact I get to take care of people and watch them get better (in most cases) or I can help them make their illness more bearable. I have found being a nurse is not about the glamour or pay check, but it is about how you can impact others by being a positive, uplifting light in their hour of darkness.

As a nurse you will be delegating care, assessing patients, calling doctors, giving medications, and assisting with procedures. The list could seriously go on and on. Again this depends on what career path you choose as a nurse. A labor and delivery nurse will perform different tasks compared to a cardiac intensive care unit nurse.

Of course, they will because things happen. However, if you are always doing this then they may not be very happy with you. You will always need to provide documentation or proof why you were not able to come to work. This not only proves your case but it covers you. It is important to try to plan in advance and not to sign up for days to work you may not be able to. Most companies do have policies that if you call in so many days you will not be eligible for a yearly raise so check the call-in policies.
