One of the most attractive features of nursing is job flexibility. Nursing offers latitude in selecting where, how often, how many hours, and in what setting to work. Nurses interested in hospital work choose from staff positions, case management or supervisory positions in nearly 100 different specialty areas. Other nurses opt to practice in schools, home health agencies, independently operating health care agencies and student health centers. Increasing numbers of nurses are needed to work in home health, nursing homes, community agencies, hospices, government, industry and out- patient facilities.
