Nursing Jobs Outside Of Hospitals

Community Health Nursing-Community health nurses usually work for governments, such as towns, cities, or counties, but sometimes for non-profit agencies. Their job is to educate the public about being aware of and avoiding health risks, how to achieve a healthier lifestyle, including principles of good nutrition and the basics of physical fitness. They often focus on a particular segment of the population, such as children or the elderly, and the job often involves public speaking at schools, churches, community groups, etc.
Complementary Health Care Nursing-More and more people are turning to what’s called “alternative” or “complementary” health care. Traditional Western medicine is known as allopathic medicine, but there are other approaches to health care, and many nurses have embraced these approaches and use them for caring for and healing people. Chiropractic, massage, acupuncture, herbalism, nutrition, reflexology, and other means of treating disease have grown in popularity in the past decades. Many nurses practice these things themselves, or they work in clinics with alternative practitioners. Experts believe that complementary health care nursing will be one of the fastest growing and most popular nursing careers in the next few years.
Prison/Jail Nursing-It’s an unfortunate fact of life, but there are well over a million people incarcerated in America, and the number is continuing to grow all the time. And just like the rest of the population, they have health problems and concerns, and require medical care. It takes a special kind of nurse to work in a correctional facility, and you’ll probably want to talk to some nurses who’ve done it before beginning a prison nursing career.
Managed Care Nursing-With more and more people having health insurance, and with the costs of health care skyrocketing, HMO’s and insurance companies are hiring nurses to work directly for them. Managed care nurses serve both patients and their employers by helping the companies provide quality health care for more people by educating their clients about disease prevention and healthy lifestyles, and looking for different health care delivery options in order to keep costs down.
Nursing Educator-Someone has to teach people how to do nursing, and with the growing nurse shortage there’s an increasing demand for nurse educators. In fact, one of the main causes of the current nurse shortage is a lack of qualified nursing instructors. It’s an ideal way to combine your nursing occupation with a love of teaching. Becoming a nurse educator will require at least a master’s degree, and several years experience, but it’s certainly a worthy career goal for any nurse who’d loves their profession and wants to improve it and see it thrive.
Administrative Nursing-Nurse administrators are found in many places, not just hospitals. Large medical clinics often employ them, as well as nurse staffing companies and health care providers. If you’ve got a talent for managing people and enjoy working in an administrative position, and you’ve got good office and people skills, this is a good nursing career choice for you. You’ll need some experience, and many jobs will require a master’s.
Occupational Nursing-Occupational nurses work directly for private companies, such as large factories, or any other company with a few hundred or more employees. Businesses have found that having their own nurse on staff is very cost effective, and it’s a benefit that many employees really appreciate. Occupational nurses’ duties vary, and they include designing health, safety, and wellness programs, giving instructional lectures, and running an onsite clinic for employees for minor health issues.
Missionary/Goodwill Nursing-There are many organizations and agencies providing aid and relief to third world countries. Some are government agencies, others are private sector non profit groups, and many are religious in nature. Nursing opportunities with these groups are abundant. If you want to help people less fortunate than ourselves, and you’re open to spending a lot of time overseas, there’s no better way to do that than by putting your nursing skills to work.
Pain Management Nursing-One nursing occupation that’s growing rapidly is pain management nursing. There have been tremendous advances in the past few years in understanding pain, measuring its intensity and impact, and responding to it with appropriate doses of medication. Many pain management nurses work full time with cancer patients, in homes, hospices, and hospitals. This nursing specialty requires a master’s degree.
School Nursing-Most of us no doubt have memories of the school nurse when we were growing up. Today, more school nurses than ever are needed. One reason is that there are more school kids today than years ago, and another is that more kids with special needs are attending regular schools. A career as a school nurse doesn’t necessarily require a master’s degree, and school nurses may work for one particular school full time, or may rotate between various schools for an entire system. And it’s not just public schools; some private schools also employ full or part time nurses. If you love working with kids, a career as a school nurse is option for you.
Substance Abuse Nursing-Drug and alcohol addiction are unfortunately major problems in today’s society. Substance abuse nurses work with people who are struggling with these addictions. Many of them work in detox and rehab clinics; some work in private counseling. They help people to safely end their addiction, and then work with them to get to the root causes of their problem, and help them to overcome, and build a drug and alcohol free life. This nursing career can certainly be frustrating at times, due to the power these substances have over people, leading to many relapses, but for a nurse who wants to improve the quality of people’s lives, it’s an admirable career choice.
Certified Nurse Midwife-Once you’ve been certified as a registered nurse, should you choose to go back and get a master’s degree in nursing, one career option for you is the certified nurse midwife. In this position, you’ll be working with pregnant and expectant mothers, giving them and their babies pre-natal care, actually delivering the baby, caring for mother and infant immediately after birth, and general nursing duties. You’ll need to take courses approved by the American College of Nurse-Midwives, and then pass a certification test.
Temp Nursing-More and more nurses are choosing not to work for a single facility, but to sign up with one of the many temporary nurse staffing agencies across the country. Many nurses find this an ideal way to build their career, as they get to pick and choose where and when they work. If they have a bad experience at a particular place, they can decline to go back there. They can choose not to work for several weeks at a time if they so desire. The flexibility that temp nurses have is one of the main reasons for working through agencies, and benefits are getting better all the time. Some agencies specialize in travel nursing, which means that you could work several weeks in Los Angeles, then New York City, then Hawaii, or wherever you choose. Your housing is paid for, and many times generous per diems are provided. It’s a great way to travel for single people in nursing. If you’re a nurse who wants variety and flexibility, then temp nursing is an excellent choice.
By no means are these all the options for nurses who want to work outside hospitals. The world of nursing careers beyond hospital walls is enormous and amazing in its variety-there are nurses who specialize in caring for diabetes patients in their homes, nurses who work full time with cancer patients in their homes, nurses who work for law firms, nurse who work for lawmakers in writing bills, nurses who work at camps for children, nurses who staff poison control centers. All branches of the military need professional nurses to care for our troops. Many nurses start their own business as a consultant to hospitals, businesses, insurance companies, etc. Some nurse write about nursing full time, including nursing textbooks. Some nurses even work full time for churches or church groups. There are hospice nurses, which are sort of a hybrid between home health care and hospital care. The world of nursing careers is wide open, and new job descriptions are being created all the time as nursing responds to a rapidly changing world. If you’re considering a nursing career, but thought all nursing jobs were the same, think again. And if you’re not sure which nursing career is right for you, there’s plenty to choose from, and you’re bound to find one that suits your skills and personality. So don’t hesitate to pursue a nursing career-there’s never been a better time, and nurses are needed now more than ever.

Hospital Careers For Nursing

Nursing is not a one size fits all occupation , and hasn’t been for a long time. The world of nursing has come a long way since the days of Clara Barton and Florence Nightingale, and there are all sorts of career options and specializations available for modern day nurses. While many nurses still work in hospitals, many do not, and in or out of the hospital, there’s an amazing variety of nursing c
areers available. So don’t feel pigeonholed into thinking in terms of the old nursing stereotype. We’ll talk about some of the different jobs open to today’s nurses, both in hospitals, and outside hospitals.
Nursing Jobs In Hospitals:
Nurse Practitioner-This is another option for nurses with advanced training and experience. Nurse Practitioners perform many of the functions that physicians perform, including prescribing medication (in most states). Nurse practitioners work under the supervision of a medical doctor, but they are largely independent in their day to day activities. Because of the ever growing tendency of M.D.s to specialize, the number of general practitioners has been dropping precipitously in the past few decades. To fill the gap, state medical boards created the N. P. position. Nurse practitioners are for many people their “family doctor”. They handle common illnesses, and give health counseling and advice on avoiding sickness. A master’s degree is required for this nursing career, and N.P. programs usually require candidates to have several years nursing experience before acceptance.
Nurse Anesthesiologist-This is another career option for nurses that requires a master’s degree, and advanced training. The vast majority of anesthesia administered in American hospitals is administered by nurses. Anesthesiology is one of the most important medical breakthroughs in history-before it came along, surgery was a horrifyingly painful ordeal. But now people can be operated on without fear thanks to anesthesia, and the nurses who deliver most of it. This is also one of the highest paying nursing careers.
Cardiac Care Nursing-Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in America, and preventing and reversing it is one of the primary goals of modern medicine. Cardiac care nurses work with doctors who are treating victims of heart disease and other cardiac related ailments, by means of bypass surgery, angioplasty, pacemaker implants, etc. Most of the time their work is done in a hospital, but cardiac nurses can sometimes be found in specialty medical clinics, and some even visit patients at home.
Case Manager Nurse-Sometimes a patient, especially under long term care, will face a bewildering number of medical appointments, procedures, doctors, oncologists, surgeons, etc. Keeping track of them, as well as handling the interaction between the patient and the health care system is the job of the Nurse-Case Manager. Additionally, he or she not only makes sure the patient gets good health care, but also works to see to it that it’s done in a cost effective manner, saving the facility unnecessary expense. Nurse-Case Managers usually specialize in either a particular segment of the population, such as children or the elderly, or in certain medical specialties, such as AIDS, cancer, heart disease, etc.
Critical Care Nursing-You’re no doubt familiar with situations where someone has had a stroke, or been injured in a car accident, and news reports state that they’re listed in “critical condition”. Their situation is touch and go, they’re hanging between life and death. And critical care nurses are the ones who take care of them. This nursing specialty requires lots of compassion, empathy, split second decision making, intelligence, and good people skills. Not only are critical care nurses working to pull the patient back from the brink of death, but they’re also interacting and comforting the grieving and worried family members of the patients. It’s a tough job, but if you’re up to it, critical care nursing has some of the greatest emotional rewards of any nursing career.
Emergency Nursing-Nurses who work in emergency rooms deal with all kinds of situations that require immediate care, from appendicitis to car wrecks to gunshot wounds to strokes, etc. It takes a special kind of person to work in this environment-one who’s fast on their feet, can make split second decisions, isn’t easily shocked, etc. Life isn’t always exciting in the emergency room, but nurses who work there know that at any time they’re liable to encounter a life and death situation, and they have to be ready. Not everyone is cut out to work in emergency room setting, but many nurses would never work anywhere else.
Ob/Gyn Nursing-Obstetrics and gynecology nurses specialize in caring for women with regard to childbirth, pregnancy, and everything else related to the female reproductive system, from puberty all the way through menopause.
Hematology Nursing-Hematology has to do with diseases of the blood, such as sickle cell anemia and leukemia. This is a less common nursing specialty, but a very important one. If you’ve ever had a family member with hemophilia, you know just how important hematology nurses are. Much of their work involves educating patients and their family members on how to manage the disease, and cope with living with it.
Intravenous Nursing-Also known as infusion nursing, this is the nursing specialty that deals with delivering fluids, nutrients, and medications directly into the patient’s bloodstream. If you’ve heard the term “I. V. drip”, these are the nurses who administer the drips and other infusions. They also monitor the patients during delivery, and afterwards keep an eye on the opening of the skin to watch for infections.
Labor and Delivery Nursing-this is a popular career choice for nurses. It’s related to ob/gyn nursing, but focuses solely on pregnant mothers and their child immediately before, during, and immediately after labor and childbirth. Many L & D nurses wouldn’t trade jobs for anything as they can’t think of anything else that would give as much satisfaction as helping to bring new life into the world.
Medical Surgical Nursing-This specialty, commonly referred to as Med/Surg nursing, is the branch of nursing that most people have in mind when they think of a registered nurse. They help patients in hospitals and nursing homes and other facilities who are taking pharmaceutical drugs, and also care for them prior to and after surgery.
Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit-Nurses who specialize in this field, which is called NICU for short, take care of premature babies, and other babies who have serious problems immediately after being delivered. Some nurses say that while it can be an emotionally draining job, it can also be immensely satisfying.
Oncology Nursing-Oncology nurses work with cancer patients. This is a growing field, as the rates of cancer in this country continue to increase. Nurses who work in oncology administer chemotherapy, counsel patients, work with the doctors and surgeons to create and coordinate a cancer treatment plan, and educate patients on their disease and its treatment.
Perioperative Nursing-These are nurses who work in operating rooms, also known as OR nurses, although preoperative is rapidly becoming the preferred terminology. They assist surgeons directly and indirectly during surgery, prepare and maintain a safe and sterile operating environment, and monitor patients vital signs and progress during and immediately after surgery. Many periop nurses further specialize in a particular kind of surgery, such as heart surgery or neurosurgery.
Otorhinolaryngology Nursing-Also known as Head and Neck nursing, this is the branch of nursing that cares for patients with injuries and diseases affecting these areas of the body, such as accident victims, allergies, cancers of the head or neck, cleft palates, etc.
Pediatric Nursing-Pediatric nurses care for younger patients, from infancy until adulthood. Many of them also have further specializations, such as pediatric oncology, which is treating children with cancer, or pediatric hematology, since so many blood diseases strike people during childhood.
Perianesthesia Nursing-these are the nurses who assist anesthesiologists by preparing patients for anesthesia before surgery, and after surgery is completed, slowly bringing them back to wakefulness. Nurse Anesthesiologists actually administer the anesthesia; these nurses don’t actually handle the medication but help the patients during the process.
Perinatal Nursing-Nurses who specialize in pregnancy and childbirth issues, sometimes known as prenatal nursing. Pregnant women and their families face a lot of issues preparing for childbirth, especially in the case of a first child, and perinatal nurses help them get ready, telling them what to expect, giving them health tips, watching for symptoms, offering general health advice for both mother and fetus.
Psychiatric Nursing-Psych nurses work with patients facing issues of mental health, from eating disorders, depression, anxiety, addiction, physical and sexual abuse, personality disorders, etc. This branch of nursing can be highly stressful and isn’t for everybody, but like all other nursing specialties, has its own rewards that go along with the drawbacks.
Radiology Nursing-This is one of the more technically advanced nursing specialties. Radiology nurses work in the field of medical imaging, which includes sonograms, ultrasound, magnetic resonance, x-rays, etc. It’s also quite physically demanding-nurses who work in radiology are often on their feet all day, and there’s a lot of walking involved, in addition to sometimes having to wear heavy protective aprons made of lead.
Respiratory Nursing-Respiratory nurses, also known as pulmonary care nurses, work with patients who have lung problems or difficulty breathing. Their patients will have such conditions as lung cancer, emphysema, asthma, tuberculosis, etc. Many of them will also be breathing with the assistance of ventilators or oxygen machines. Respiratory nursing is primarily an in hospital nursing specialty, but many respiratory nurses will make home visits as part of their job.
Rehabilitation Nursing-Rehab nurses work with patients who’ve become temporarily or permanently disabled and unable to function normally due to injury or illness. Many of their patients are in wheelchairs or use other devices to assist them in getting around. It can be a physically demanding job, and requires a lot of compassion and patience.
Telemetry Nursing-Telemetry nurses work with heart patients in the cardiac units of hospitals, where the patients are hooked up to sophisticated instruments used to monitor various functions of the cardio pulmonary system, such as electrocardiogram machines. Not only must these nurses know how to care for patients, they must also be familiar with the various types of instruments and how to interpret the feedback they get from them.
Trauma Nursing-Trauma nurse usually work in emergency rooms, or with patients who’ve just come out of the emergency room. Whether it’s a heart attack victim, a person who almost drowned, someone who fell off a ladder, or a person who’s been in a severe car accident, trauma victims need intense care as soon as possible. They’re often in shock, or bleeding profusely, and are many times near death. Trauma nurses work with doctors and surgeons to treat their condition, and then stabilize them so they can hopefully make a full recovery. This can be an extremely stressful nursing career, more so than many others

NCLEX RN Exam Information and Tips

In order to become certified as a registered nurse, individuals must pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses. This exam has been developed by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing to ensure that standards for professional practice are the same in every jurisdiction.
The NCLEX-RN exam is divided into the following Client Needs categories and subcategories: Safe and Effective Care Environment, which consists of Management of Care (13-19%) and Safety and Infection Control (8-14%); Health Promotion and Maintenance (6-12%); Psychosocial Integrity (6-12%); and Physiological Integrity, which consists of Basic Care and Comfort (6-12%), Pharmacological and Parenteral Therapies (13-19%), Reduction of Risk Potential (13-19%), and Physiological Adaptation (11-17%). The following subjects, known as Integrated Processes, are essential to all of the Client Needs categories: Nursing Process, Caring, Communication and Documentation, and Teaching and Learning. The NCLEX-RN exam is administered through an interactive process called Computer Adaptive Testing: as questions are answered, the computer selects the subsequent questions that will give the most accurate gauge of the candidate. The computer will continue to pose questions until it has settled upon a grade of pass or fail.
NCLEX-RN Flashcards
NCLEX-RN Study Guide
The exam will contain 75 questions at the least, and 265 at the most, and cannot last any longer than six hours. Although most of the items will be multiple-choice questions with four options, there may also be fill-in-the-blank, picture/graphic-based questions, or multiple-choice questions that ask the candidate to select more than one right answer. Many of the questions on the exam will require the candidate to read and interpret charts, tables, and pictures. Unofficial exam scores will be available two business days after the exam date in some jurisdictions; official results will be delivered by the licensing agency in the candidate’s jurisdiction. The NCLEX-RN exam is administered at Pearson Professional Centers around the United States; prospective test-takers should visit the NCSBN website.

Nursing Jobs Help

Across the United States there is a need for thousands of nurses. However, you must carefully consider all of your options when going for the nursing job that is right for you.
When applying for your first nursing job be flexible and persistent in the hiring process. If you have your sights set on a specific nursing position within a hospital, you may have to take an altern
ative position and maneuver yourself into your dream nursing job. It may take a little networking to really find the job you love. If you are looking for a job in education as a nurse, you will have to have some work experience.

Always have some type of long term plan. Generally speaking nurses that end up in hospital management and supervisory positions have a career plan. The nursing job you are currently in or working towards, will allow you to meet the key contact people in your field and location. Always take inventory of your skill level and experience. If your skill level has improved and your compensation has not, consider going for the nursing job you have always wanted. Some nurses end up going from job to job without any long term goals. Don't fall into this trap.
If you have taken and passed the NCLEX exam and are in good standing with your state boards, you are a valuable resource. Always join your local professional associations to network with other skilled nurses. These individuals will be able to tell you about the local trends in the job market.
Stay connected with graduates of your nursing program and recent alums. Many of the best nursing job tips come from classmates who know the hospitals and facilities in your job target region.
Always exhibit a positive attitude even though a recruiter or hospital may not need your services at a given time. In the flow of business a nurse may quit that day, and a position may open up at any time. If you become rude or belligerent after receiving the bad news, remember that information travels.
