Pls What Is Your Advice To A Guy That Wants To Study Nursing by NewJ6322: 11:34am On Jul 30, 2020 |
Goodday I applied for a state University medicine and surgery and they recently made to the public that they won't be admitting students into medicine and besides i love obstetrics which has been my driving force to study medicine now am thinking for opting for nursing but due to reply from so many people I feel nursing is inferior for a guy and besides if I decide to specialize in maternal health while reading nursing it will be midwifery thereby limiting my scope of practice the most painful part is that someone said on Facebook that nursing is the surface area of medicine that nurses don't know up to 50percent of what the doctors know that there job is just care nothing more pls I need ur advice |

Nursing is a very respectable career for anyone. It can be very lucrative especially if you travel to the US where some of them earn around $100k a year. Even in Nigeria, they are entitled to their own registered facilities and can treat minor conditions and conduct ante-natal and deliveries. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Nursing is a very Nice profession even as a guy. Hope you wouldn't regret your choice Later in Life when you start working with Doctors. Because it seems Nursing is not your thing.so you don't kill patient out of anger or frustration Please Ignore anyone that says you are at Disadvantage because you are Male. Though Nigerians have this bias for Males going into Nursing. Most of them are not in the Health Field and would Never know When a Male Nurse treated them because they would think he was a Doctor. I have Male Nurse as Friends both in School and in the profession. About Nursing being the Surface of Medicine is just Laughable. Every Medical field is Unique. Nobody knows it all. I don't even want to talk about how Lucrative the profession is. The aim is to Make the patient better! We also have other Medical courses to choose from... Medicine, Dentistry,MLS, Nursing, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy and Radiography. Make your choice. 5 Likes 1 Share |

since Your simple choice will define your entire life, the best person who can give the best advice you need is YOU. Yes YOU. Your choice should be your passion, your dream and your motivation. No course is obsolete. I know a Billionaire who study forestry in university. You will excel in any field you choose |

NewJ6322:First: NURSING is Very Good. Mind you, After studying that, you must endeavour to leave Nigeria. You will be better appreciated in Diaspora. Secondly: You really need to improve on your vocabulary. I say this because it was difficult for me to comprehend the message you tried to pass across. And I guess the Lecturers that will be assessing you academically will do that In English. Fixing that will facilitate your Academic excellence. After all, your JOB as a student is to study and nothing more. Thirdly: While studying, ensure you download LANGUAGE APPs that will tutor you on different International Languages like Spanish. Speaking another major foreign Language will be an added advantage in case you find yourself in Diaspora. Do this and thank me 7 years Later 3 Likes |

NewJ6322:What happened to Jamb change of institution form? Pls change school, it is not compulsory to study in AAU. Nursing is very nice career even for males but pls dont do it. You dont even like the course cos you feel it is inferior to medicine. That inferiority complex will always be there for you, especially when you start working. |

Nursing is okay but if you believe your passion is in something else then try another thing. |

Kindly note that Nursing in Nigeria is not what is obtainable in other countries. The profession is at its abyssmal low in Nigeria even though it has been trying in recent time. In Mozambique, South Sudan and other countries, nurse/midwives are undertaking complex procedures and some obstetric surgeries. If your goals is to stay back in this "ghost town" choose other profession, if not, you are in a very lucrative profession outside Nigeria spheres. Meanwhile, Nursing is a distinct PROFESSION LIKE MEDICINE AND PHARMACY. It is neither medicine nor pharmacy, rather each knows a fraction of what is obtainable in the other profession to be able to work effectively. If nurses should know more than 50% of what is in medicine then there is no need to have a doctor, is there? If your interest is in obstetrics, you can proceed to maternal and child health nursing at graduate level. 1 Like |

Follow your heart and do not care what people think. Also hustle for money also no just go school go read. Don't choose a course to study because of money or job employment. |
