I want to be a registered nurse. I am going to go to college for 2 years for an associate degree in nursing. I would really love to work with the newborns and mothers. I do not know what hours I would have to work, and what kind of nurse would I be? Do registered nurses work in different fields? I know I want to work with people, take care of people, and learn about health. I am just confused about some aspects of nursing and what I want to do in nursing! Help me out as much as you can! Thank you!

I've heard of the bill, Nurse Education Expansion, and Development Act (still underway) that allows "Public Health Service Act to authorize capitation grants to increase the number of nursing faculty and students, and for other purposes." Do you think this bill should be enforced? Should nursing schools lower their standards to beat the shortage of nurses we're experiencing? Or do you think there is an alternative, say, like increasing the salary of nursing professors so we won't be short of them? How do we defeat the nursing shortage?! You think the bill, if it becomes law, will do any good?

Does anybody know what the rules/regualtions are for Ontario nurses against tattoos. I have a small tattoo on the back of my neck. I have long hair so its only noticible when I have my hair up, but aren't nurses required to wear their hair up at all times?

I am assuming here that an attorney is the same thing as a lawyer, but I don't know how to become one. I do know enough about nurses so no need to reply with that info.
