When I was young, I dreamed of becoming a nurse to help my sick grandmother feel well. However, as I grow older, I lose my interest in nursing due to influences of family, friends, school and community. That time, teachers are more in demand for employment so I got a degree related to education: social sciences.

Now, I can’t help but regret my decision. I should have been a nurse if I only knew that there will be a great need for nurses in the country.

So, if you want to be a nurse, start now. There are many reasons why you have to join the workforce and here are some.

Caregivers are in great demand in the United States as there is an increasing number of elderly and children who need proper medical attention and healthcare needs. What is a caregiver, by the way?

I have gone to this site and learned that a caregiver is “anyone who routinely helps others who are limited by chronic conditions. “Formal” caregivers are volunteers or paid employees connected to the social service or health care systems. The term “informal caregiver” refers to family members and friends, who are the primary source of care for nearly three-quarters of the impaired older adults who live in the community. Caregivers assist with such basic tasks as bathing, dressing, preparing meals and shopping. Some have the added responsibilities of administering medications, making sure that an immobile person is turned frequently to avoid developing pressure sores, and other tasks related to the older person’s illness or disability.”

In other words, caregivers serve as personal healthcare providers to patients who cannot do things on their own and need others’ assistance to eat, bathe, move and live.

Being a caregiver is such a noble profession, especially when you are doing it for the good of others, albeit your patients’ welfare and your family’s financial provisions. It is always heartening to know that you live your life for the sole purpose of making other people happy and complete.

It is one of the highest paid operations because it requires skillful surgeons and assistants to make it a success. On the other hand, plastic surgeons also carry out cosmetic surgery that is unrelated to medical conditions, such as changing the nose of a patient or medically termed as rhinoplasty. Another one is breast augmentation in which the surgeon will perform an operation to make the patient’s breast just the way the patient likes it. Through this, patients that undergo cosmetic surgery will achieve satisfaction or contentment about the ‘new’ feature of their body not realizing that it could also harm them.
