That depends on your specialization and the facility you are working in. Most nurses work in healthcare facilities such as hospitals, clinics, and rehabilitation centers. Some nurses also work in the patient's home, community centers, schools etc. As most patients in hospitals require 24/7 care, nurses are therefore, required to work in rotating shifts. They might be working days or nights, weekends and holidays etc. Nurses will be required to perform a variety of tasks on the job such as administering medication, checking patients’ charts, prepping patients for surgery, etc. The career can be challenging in many ways, but can also turn out to be rewarding.
