WHICH NURSING CAREER IS THE BEST CHOICE FOR ME? by beconrad
One of the great things about the field of nursing is that there are so many career options available to experienced nurses. When you think of a nursing career, you probably picture busy professionals running around a hospital ward or helping patients in a medical clinic, but there is much more to nursing than that. Nurses work for insurance companies reviewing claims. They work in nursing homes helping patients maintain their independence while enhancing their safety. Nurses work in healthcare administration, making decisions that help hospitals and medical facilities be more effective and more cost-efficient. Nurses even work in education, giving the next generation of medical professionals the tools they need to succeed in an ever-changing world. No matter where you end up in your nursing career, chances are you will start in one of three places. There are three main ways to enter the field of nursing, including: • • •
Aides - including nursing aides, attendants and orderlies Licensed nurses - including licensed practical nurse (LPN) and licensed vocational nurse (LVN) Registered nurse (RN)
The wide variety of options available, and the equally wide variety of educational requirements and monetary commitments, makes nursing a particularly good field for the adult learner. While many people enter nursing school right out of high school, others take a more nuanced path. Some people start out as nursing aides at a local hospital or nursing home, working their way up and attending school in the evening. Others work jobs in other fields and attend nursing school in the evenings and on weekends. Still others save up money until they can go to nursing school full time. No matter which path you choose, a career in nursing can be very rewarding. While there is no one right path to a nursing career, many adults like to try the field 10 NOVEMBER 30, 2018
out before they commit the time and money required to get that coveted RN credential. They might work as an orderly at the local hospital or a nursing aide at a medical clinic. Once they have decided that a career in health care is a good fit, they may go back to college and pursue an LPN or RN degree. They may work toward those goals on a part-time basis, even attending some classes online. In fact, the nursing field is amenable to distance learning, and many nursing aides and other medical professionals take advantage of this option. When hands-on labs are required, students can use the facilities of local hospitals and clinics to get the experience they need. Others may prefer the interaction of a live classroom. For those adult learners, a local nursing school is an excellent choice. Many communities with large hospitals offer nursing programs, and most universities have some sort of nursing curriculum available. If you are unsure how to get started, just talk to the nurses at your doctor's office or the staff at the local hospital. You will get a lot of opinions, and some excellent advice on how to pursue your own nursing career.
When you think of a nursing career, you probably picture busy professionals running around a hospital ward or helping patients in a medical clinic, but there is much more to nursing than that.

What Is the Difference Between RN-BSN and RN-MSN Programs? By Robin A Wright
Individuals who are in the registered nurse (RN) profession interact with patients on a daily basis. They educate and care for patients, while providing medications, helping certain individuals to cope with disease, and providing emotional support to families. In order to become an RN, students need to earn a bachelor's in nursing, associate's in nursing, or a diploma from an approved nursing program. After receiving degrees or a diploma, and gaining some experience in the field, some individuals consider going back to school to earn a BSN or MSN. The BSN stands for Bachelor of Science in Nursing, while the MSN is a Master of Science in Nursing. Some individuals may not know the difference, or may know what each one entails, but not which one would be the most beneficial to their future career.
RN to BSN Programs These programs are typically designed with the schedule of a working professional in mind. Therefore, most of the programs should be very flexible, and allow for different scheduling and completion times. A lot of program should also allow students to use past and current experience as part of the program. This means experience can be transferred into credit hours, allowing a shorter completion time. These programs typically give students additional practice, theory, and experience in clinical labs in order to assist developing necessary BSN skills. Such skills include clinical skills, evaluation methods, and being able to prioritize tasks in the workplace. After earning this degree, students may find careers as an assistant director, director, assistant head nurse, or head nurse. Other fields may include teaching, research, or consulting. These programs exist to build onto already existing knowledge that professionals have learned over the duration of their RN training.
Article Source: https://EzineArticles.com/expert/Robin_A_Wright/1388380
RN to MSN Programs While an MSN program is similar to a BSN program, students are typically occupied with a more rigorous and involved curriculum. Like the BSN program, the some MSN programs are very flexible with their classes and course material, in order to accommodate the schedule of a full time working professional. Again, like a BSN program, experience may be translated into course credit. This degree is usually a necessity for more administrative roles that require advanced learning. Such careers include Clinical Nurse Leader, nurse executive, health policy consultant, research assistant, expert clinicians, and clinical educators. Students in an MSN program will be taught the more complex version of subjects the BSN students will be learning. Those who hold a MSN typically have a wider range of career opportunities, as well as the preparedness to sit for certification exams. In sum, an MSN may offer the ability to advance into a career with more responsibility and prestige. However, the BSN program may be ideal for some students who do not have time or need for an intense program such as the MSN. By talking with an academic advisor in a BSN or MSN program, or peers who have gone through BSN and MSN programs, current RNs may be able to better judge what program would be the right fit for needs. 30, 2018 NOVEMBER 20their

Hidden
Disability By George David Williams
THEÂ
Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/George_David_Williams/1447735
daily routine is consistent and predictable. After stopping for morning coffee and bagels, hoards of white collar professionals crowd downtown office buildings to start another day. The workers are undeniably "corporate" in mannerisms and their approach to the herculean task of representing the elite companies in the world. Among this group of employees are men and women on the autism spectrum. Some of them have been diagnosed with Aspergers, while others are simply considered high functioning autistics. This is the group that represents the seldom talked about and frequently neglected segment of autism. These professionals on the autism spectrum are very successful in many instances, as they occupy key positions in some of the world's dominant companies. Further, they are independent, driven, and highly respected in fields ranging from education and research to engineering and finance. From all appearances, they fit in perfectly with peers and have the same challenges as others in their chosen careers. In this scenario, appearances can be deceiving because lurking below the surface are myriad problems. Admittedly, we are referring to high performance professionals, yet their disabilities are largely invisible. Anxiety and depression are commonly associated with autism spectrum disorders, often requiring medical attention. Managing either of these conditions can be challenging, especially in high stress environments.
22
Conditions may go undetected for years as employees elect not to disclose medical issues for fear of reprisal or being perceived as the "weak link" among a competitive team. Moreover, there is internal pressure to maintain production to gain promotions and pay increases as the years go by. In addition, a number of professional employees on the autism spectrum experience some degree of sensory irregularities. This may range from regulating bodily temperature, adjusting to NOVEMBER 30, 2018
surrounding lights, handling noise levels, interpreting non-verbal communication signals, and adapting to routine management changes. Beyond the environmental issues that everyone is subjected to, many autistic adults experience physical and bodily functions unique to their own neurological makeup. For instance, there are extremely intelligent people who can only understand the written word if its read out loud. Others struggle with homonyms and how to use the right word in proper context; dear and deer is an excellent example of this type of problem. Each autistic person has his or her own communication challenges that manifests differently depending on how their brains are wired. None of these issues are visible, but they can create tremendous stress in the lives of those living with autism at all levels. Beyond the communication nuances, there are many autistic adults involved in support groups for various concerns. For them, group participation is an important part of life as it provides an outlet to share with others with similar perspectives. Further, being active in a support group helps many adults on the spectrum remain grounded in situations that may otherwise become unmanageable. While some high functioning autistic adults are married or involved in committed relationships, others have difficulty forming and maintaining relationships. This is a matter of personal choice, but some autistics have voiced concerns regarding the lack of intimacy in their lives. Having a social network extends to friendships and the companionship they provide during times of difficulty or uncertainty. Some of the well polished professionals occupying downtown offices each day lack the closeness of human relationships. To their credit, white collar professionals on the autism spectrum have developed incredible coping skills, in both the personal and career paths, which results in maximum levels of performance. George D. Williams, MS is a published author and adult autism advocate. His writings are concentrated on the topics of autism employment, housing, health care, and social interactions. George is an in demand speaker on adult autism housing. http://adultautism2.com VOL. 23 ISSUE 1169

The Harris County Flood Control District is currently seeking qualified candidates to join our team.
Q: My friend told me that most companies don’t hire during December. I have been off work for just 2 weeks, and I really don’t want to wait until January to search for a job. Do you think I should just relax until January? -Humble, Texas Reader A: Nope. As tempting as that sounds, companies hire in December so that people will be onboard in January. If you see a company advertising, contact them. They are hiring. Q: I think my boss is super sweet, he fl irts with me a lot, and I would love to date him. Is there a way that I can fi nd out if he’s okay with dating without risking my job? -Houston, Texas Reader A: Not really. Most companies have rules about bosses dating employees, and he could be fi red for not following that rule. He is in a power position that makes his attention to you more harassment than it should be. If he’s fl irting with you, he’s probably putting his job in danger already. Quietly check him out with people who have been there awhile. You may fi nd that he is a serial fl irter.

Q: I was injured on the job in March, and I’ve had nothing but trouble since then. My company sent me home and told me that I should go to an urgent care place. I did, and they told me that
GENERAL
I needed an MRI and x-rays. I had that done and it showed a
EOE
cracked disc. The company let me go last month and wanted me to sign a paper that said that I wouldn’t sue. If I signed, they would give me $10,000, but I didn’t and I got nothing. I have another hearing in December, but right now I need to fi nd a job. I can’t do anything that will hurt my back, but I can do a lot of other things. What should I say? -Texas City, Texas Reader A: Look for something that you have done well at in the past. Don’t explain your health status to your interviewer. Let them know when you left your job, but don’t discuss your injury or any of the other things that happened. Interestingly, recruiters don’t like to hear
GENERAL LABORERS
that you are suing your previous company because they think that you would do the same to their company. Don’t say that you have been out on medical leave since March. Your goal is to have an interviewer judge you on your abilities rather than on an injury. Q: The offi ce holiday party is coming up soon, and it’s my fi rst time to go. I keep hearing people talk about drinking, but I don’t drink and neither does my fi ancé. Should I even go? -Houston, Texas Reader A: Of course. Just don’t drink. If someone off ers you an alcoholic drink, just say, “No, thank you.” Isn’t that easy? -If you have any questions about interviewing, hiring, or work, I’d love to hear from you.

From premed to physician: Pursuing a medical career Allen Chen | December 2017
Allen Chen, "From premed to physician: Pursuing a medical career," Career Outlook, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, December 2017.
P
remed student Matthew Zelig has wanted to become a doctor ever since taking a college biology class in which he learned about cancer. “The desire to understand and treat serious illnesses, like cancer, has shaped my time as a student,” he says. “It’s inspired me to do everything I can to become a doctor.” As Zelig and other premed students know, becoming a physician requires an academic commitment to complete 4 years of medical school and up to 7 years of training after earning a bachelor’s degree. It also demands commitments of money and time to meet all the requirements, which vary by state. Only you can decide for yourself whether such investments are worthwhile. The data in this article may help with your decision-making on the path from premed student to doctor.
Undergraduate preparation
Many students launch their physician or surgeon career goals as undergraduates in a premed program. Medical schools generally require students to have core knowledge of the life and physical sciences—including chemistry, physics, NOVEMBER 30, 2018with 46and biology—along
subjects such as English and calculus. Learning these disciplines helps students prepare for medical study.
Premed studies Biology was the most prevalent major for physicians and surgeons who were employed in 2015. Although science subjects were popular fields of an undergraduate degree for these doctors, liberal arts subjects such as English, history, and fine arts also made the list. Science majors often must supplement their classroom time with laboratory time. Laboratory research is strongly encouraged for premed students. To build research credentials, consider enrolling in a summer program or applying to internships that involve working in a lab, such as those with the National Institutes of Health. Demonstrated commitment to volunteering in the community also is encouraged. In addition, shadowing a doctor at work is recommended for prospective medical students. Job shadowing involves following a doctor during his or her interactions with patients. Not only can shadowing give you a perspective on the day-to-day realities of providing healthcare, but it also may help confirm your plans.
Applying to medical school Toward the end of their undergraduate education, premed students take the standardized Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) as part of the medical school application process. Medical school applications also typically require academic transcripts, essays, and letters of recommendation that highlight applicants’ science and research background. Admission to medical school is competitive. According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, of 53,000 medical school applicants in the 2016–17 school year, about 21,000 matriculated—that is, 40 percent of first-year applicants were accepted and enrolled in the fall of 2016.
Medical school There are two types of medical degrees in the United States: Medical Doctor (M.D.) and Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.). Both degrees require 4 years of medical school in addition to a bachelor’s degree. BothVOL. also23allow physicians and surgeons to ISSUE 1169
icians and surgeons to practice medicine. Students usually must pass the first two parts of these tests before graduating from medical school. The number of medical degrees conferred increased almost 44 percent between 1990–91 and 2014–15, according to data from the U.S. Department of Education National Center for Education Statistics. Although M.D. degrees continue to be more common than D.O. degrees, chart 1 shows that the latter have increased their share of the total over the 25-year period.
Residency and licensure To become a licensed physician or surgeon, medical school graduates must continue their training in a residency program. According to American Medical Association data, there were more than 131,000 medical residents in 2016. The ranking for common residency specialties for M.D.s differed somewhat from that for D.O.s.
use the same treatment methods, but D.O.s may emphasize preventive medicine and holistic care. Regardless of which degree students decide to pursue, medical school typically begins with preclinical education. This phase focuses on science, physiology, disease processes, and treatment with a combination of classroom instruction and experiential learning. Preclinical students often work with a practicing physician who mentors them in applying their knowledge of patient care. Following the preclinical phase, advanced medical education finds students engaging in clerkships at hospitals or clinics affiliated with the school. Clerkships involve participating on a healthcare team and assuming a number of responsibilities that increase over time. Students may do a variety of rotations—including, for example, internal medicine, surgery, and anesthesiology—to get a feel for which specialties interest them. In addition, third- and fourth-year students begin the process of taking a three-part series of licensing exams for physVOL. 23required ISSUE 1169
Working as a doctor The specific duties of physicians and surgeons vary by specialty. But tasks generally include ordering diagnostic tests, reviewing test results and recommending a treatment plan, and discussing patient self-care, such as proper nutrition. Most physicians and surgeons work full time, and many have irregular schedules that require them to be on call and to take overnight or weekend shifts. And they may stand for long periods while interacting with patients. In addition, they may encounter hazardous materials or situations and may need to wear protective gear, such as latex gloves.
Employment Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) show that about 82 percent of physicians and surgeons worked in the healthcare and social assistance industry Continued on page 50
Residents usually work in a hospital or clinic under the supervision of an attending physician. They may work a fluctuating number of hours per day doing the duties of a physician or surgeon, including interviewing patients. And residents generally are “on call” during some shifts—a status that requires extended and overnight hours. Residencies generally last 3 to 7 years. The purpose of a residency is to continue experiential learning, exposing medical graduates to a variety of patients and diagnoses. Residents usually are scheduled to work in different rotations so that they become familiar with the duties and environments they may encounter as physicians or surgeons. If they want to practice a subspecialty in a niche field, residents may need even more years of training. After completing their residency, doctors are eligible to apply for an unrestricted medical license, allowing them to work in private practice or at a hospital or clinic. Doctors may enter a 1- or 2-year fellowship to learn techniques or research in a particular specialty. Many physicians and surgeons also obtain board certification, a voluntary credential, in their specialty. Physicians and surgeons earn board certification after successfully passing an examination given by the American Board of Medical Specialties.

sector in 2016. Employment was concentrated in physicians’ offices and in hospitals, with more growth projected from 2016 to 2026 for offices than hospitals.
Outlook and wages If you’re not sure what type of medicine you’d like to practice, data from BLS may help you decide. BLS projects 91,400 new jobs and 13-percent growth in employment—faster than the 7 percent projected for all occupations—for physicians and surgeons overall from 2016 to 2026. And the mean annual wage for physicians and surgeons was substantially higher than the $49,630 mean wage for all occupations in 2016. But employment projections vary by specialty, as do wages.
Other medical careers Not all premed students become physicians or surgeons working in medical practices and hospitals. Perhaps you’re among those who realize that you don’t want to provide patient care—or don’t want to go to medical school at all. If so, you have other options. For example, you may want to consider pursuing a degree in public health. But if you do want to work with patients and just don’t want to go to medical school, or if you know you want to focus on a particular specialty, consider the occupations listed in the table below. According to BLS, the healthcare practitioners and technical occupational group is projected to add the most jobs from 2016 to 2026. This group consists of a number of healthcare occupations in addition to physicians and surgeons.
Selected healthcare occupations that typically require at least a bachelor’s degree to enter, by education and training; employment and wages, 2016; and percent employment growth, projected 2016–26

DO WHAT’S BEST FOR YOU RETIREMENT CONTRIBUTIONS Dear Dave, I’ll be graduating from college with no debt in a couple of weeks, and I have a good job waiting for me in January. During the last few years, I’ve managed to save almost $25,000 from my part-time jobs while in school. My car is pretty beaten up and old, so I’ve been shopping at a couple of car dealerships recently. Every time I talk to a salesperson, they tell me I should finance something new instead of paying cash for a used car. What should I do?
Dear Dave,
Ethan
Dear Mallory,
Dear Ethan,
For starters, Baby Step 4 of my plan involves saving 15 percent of your gross annual pay for retirement. You don’t have to be a complete nerd about this figure. I mean, you probably won’t end up in the poor house if you set aside 12 to 14 percent. The bottom line is you should be able to save $7,500 a year if you make $50,000 annually. That’s just a little over $600 a month.
I hope you’ll keep one very important thing in mind. This is your purchase, not theirs. The only reason they want you to finance something is so they’ll make a lot more money off the deal. Forget what they want. You need to do what’s best for you. You’ve been a hard-working, smart guy over the last few years. The fact that you’ve been able to save nearly $25,000 is proof of that. I don’t think you want to throw a big chunk of your savings—or your new income—into something that’s going to go down in value like a rock. New cars lose about 60 percent of their value during the first four years of ownership. That means a $28,000 car would be worth around $11,000 after that period. That’s not a smart investment. If I were you, I’d shop around and pay cash for a nice, slightly used $10,000 car. You can get a great automobile for that kind of money, plus you’ll still have the majority of your savings.
As part of your Baby Steps plan, you always advise people to put 15 percent of their income toward retirement. Would you explain the details of this, please? Mallory
However, the only way you can do this is by giving up stupid things like credit cards and car payments. When you get out of debt, it’s easy to set aside an emergency fund of three to six months of expenses—which is Baby Step 3—and start throwing 15 percent at retirement during Baby Step 4. Did you know you can retire a millionaire if you save 15 percent of a $50,000 a year income, and invest it in good growth stock mutual funds starting at age 30? Sounds worth it to me! —Dave
Congratulations, young man. You’ve done a great job! —Dave
