Nurse

A nurse provides and coordinates care for patients across their health journey. Depending on where you work, your day might include taking vital signs, giving medications, changing dressings, monitoring patients' conditions, entering notes in electronic records, and teaching patients and families how to manage an illness at home. You are often the person who spends the most time with patients, noticing changes early and speaking up. You work with physicians, other nurses, therapists, and support staff as a team.
