Just stop.
What an insult.

What can you possibly do with an Art History degree

That's the only major difference betwen a CNA and a nurse. And some nurses take advantage of that. I've seen tons of them sit at their computer while online shopping as the CNAs pant from room to room. And those are the people I'm reffering to. Those who are just in it for the money.

Good. We need more nurses like you.

There is no "basic major", every major requires difficult classes. Just because a major has limited employment opportunities doesn't make it basic.

I'm majoring in Psychology with a pre-med focus because I find Psychology interesting, which is ultimately what should be the deciding factor of your major.

You don't have any clue what you're talking about.
CNA's are certified after a usual six-eight week program that teaches them how to feed patients, make beds, etc. The most complex procedure they perform in probably taking a manual BP.
Nursing is a now primarily four-year program with national board exams, extremely competitive schools, God knows how many clinical hours, etc.
I'm assuming you're a CNA?
You're trained to do skills that are mastered early on in the first year of nursing school.
They aren't comparable AT ALL.

Right, it's not easy at all.

You'll be thankful they're becoming nurses when there is a shortage.

No, I'm not a CNA lol.

I just witness things. I see the CNA's actually wiping ass and doing different things like that while some nurses sit around gossiping or doing paperwork. I actually do see some hardworking nurses who do accuchecks, and check in on the patient, etc.

I understand that nursing isn't easy. My thing is, people go into the field because their grandma or whatever was a nurse, or they see $$$. And the few people with no love for the field who actually make it through the program come out with a degree are miserable and make ****** nurses.

Welp, and there it is!

No its employable which matters more than following your passion and not finding work

Nursing is like any other job. Some nurses suck, others are great.

i've never studied it but i can't imagine it's the type of career someone that doesn't have their heart set out on doing it would/could do, at least not for very long.

it certainly doesn't seem easy, i've heard it's long hours and not very good pay?

Y'all not gonna drag my psych and communications major.

I just feel that nursing is not a mjor that you should go into just because its "employable." You're dealing with people's lives. And I meet to so many people who want to do it, and it just irks me.....

I'm in no way discrediting the field at all. And what you're saying is absolutely right.

This is so true, especially with a family full of nurses.
