Registered Nurse Future

My Future of Becoming a Registered Nurse Want to send your career helping those in need? A registered nurse (RN) is an awarding job since you are helping so many people and you would be proud of yourself for what you do everyday. As a registered nurse you can help people in different ways, not only physically, but mentally also. Since I was a child, I always wanted to become someone who helped someone in need.

All of the hard work pays off, literally, by your pay and you are ensured to have a job wherever you go. Registered Nursing is a detailed job that takes a lot of skill because there is no room for errors.

Many employers are flexible on the work hours and they may even offer childcare or educational advantages(“Bureau of Labor Statistics”). RNs also have the option of becoming a part time RN. In 2014, 1 out of 6 RNs worked part time(BLS). RNs salary is around $67,490 therefore they make about $32.45 an hour(BLS). The range is quite dramatic though like the lowest 10 percent made $46,000 a year and the highest made $101,000 a year(BLS). If you work for the government if varies usually they make around $70,000, but if you work residential they make $46,000. In my opinion, that is most definitely an adequate amount of money for
