Most people go into the healthcare field because they want to help people who are sick. But being a nurse is a very unglamorous job sometimes. It means treating all manner of wounds, cleaning up after people, and being exposed to infectious diseases on a daily basis. It takes a strong stomach and an iron constitution. There are long hours. You’d better have sensible shoes because you’re on your feet all day. Sometimes, patients die. But then again, sometimes they’re saved.
