Hello,

SKILLS REQUIRED TO BECOME A NURSE ARE :

  • Cultural Awareness T:is essential to giving complete, patient-centered care.
  • Professionalism.
  • Attention to Detail.
  • Critical Thinking.
  • Compassion.
  • Time Management.
  • Communication.

Steps to Become a Nurse

Step 1: Earn a Degree

A formal education is absolutely necessary on the path to becoming a registered practicing nurse (RN). With a few exceptions, almost every position in the nursing field requires a bachelor’s degree. A few positions can be earned by candidates with associate degrees, and some positions require advanced degrees. It may be difficult to shift through the numerous degree programs available, but that’s a good thing. This way, you have a lot of options, and choosing the degree program that’s right for you may help in deciding what kind of nurse you want to be or even what university you’d like to attend. The most popular options are outlined below

Associate Degree in Nursing

Bachelor of Science in Nursing

Accelerated Nursing Program

Master of Science in Nursing

Step 2: Obtain a License

Earning your nursing license by passing a national nursing licensure examination (NCLEX) is pivotal in any nurse’s career. Without the correct credentials, individuals will not be able to practice nursing. Licensing requirements vary by state, nursing specialty, and occupation

Here are three of the most popular examples of national exams:

  • Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA): This state competency exam is designed for individuals who want to work as nursing assistants. CNAs have a fairly limited scope of responsibilities, and the examination will reflect that.
  • National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-PN): Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) are required to pass this test. LPNs have a slightly wider range of responsibilities than their CNA counterparts. They are tasked with administering certain medicines or conduct certain medical tests. The exam would cover these additional responsibilities and the comprehension of more basic assistance.
  • National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN): Registered Nurses (RNs) are required to pass this test in order to practice. Of the three,this exam would be the most in-depth.

Step 3: Obtain Employment

Nursing is a rapidly growing field, expected to grow 15% by 2026 according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). That’s more than double the average national growth rate for all jobs.Nursing has become a more popular profession, as well, so there will be healthy competition for open positions.

Location and specific areas of nursing can have a lot to do with employment chances. For instance, long-term care facilities are expected to become more and more popular as the population ages. Demand for RNs in those long-term care establishments will continue to increase. Also, places with established medical communities tend to have exciting new opportunities.

Step 4: Choose a Specialty

Upon graduation from a nursing program and passing the NCLEX, you may choose to enter a nursing specialty. Choosing a specialty right away is not absolutely necessary. Some nursing positions associated with different specialties may require specific certifications or more advanced degrees. Here are some of the most popular nursing specialties:

  • Neonatal Nursing: These nurses work with patients directly before and after giving birth. Generally, these nurses work in the neonatal unit at a hospital, but they may also work in related units doing similar work.
  • Nurse Midwife: These nurses guide patients through the entire process of pregnancy and delivery. Currently, individuals in this branch of nursing are highly demanded and well-compensated.
  • Clinical Nursing: This term covers nurses with advanced degrees and advanced certifications that oversee the work of other nurses.
  • Critical Care Nursing: Nurses specializing in critical care are usually employed by hospitals and work in critical care units or trauma centers.

Step 5: Pursue Additional Training – Progress Your Nursing Career

For some this may not be necessary, but for others with specific career goals in mind, this may be a great option. In the field of nursing, much like other professional industries, further schooling often results in senior-level employment opportunities, higher salaries, and greater responsibility. Fortunately, there are many options for advanced degrees in nursing.

What Do Nurses Do?

  • Assess the condition of their patients
  • Record patient’s medical data and relevant behavior
  • Work and communicate efficiently with other members of the healthcare team
  • Effectively use and maintain medical equipment
  • Assist in forming a treatment plan
  • Assess patient and families teaching needs, develop an individualized teaching plan and provide relevant teaching
  • Advise families on the condition of the patient and post-hospital care

What Qualifications Do You Need to Become a Nurse?

The minimal qualifications needed to become a practicing registered nurse (RN) are an associate degree (ASN) or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), and passing the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for Registered Nurses.  Higher-level degrees, like a Master of Science in Nursing, require additional education and passing specialty certification examinations.

How Many Years Does It Take to Become a Nurse?

The minimum amount of time needed to become a practicing nurse would be the 2 - 3 years of coursework associated with an associate degree in nursing. A bachelor’s degree takes 3 - 4 years of coursework.  A master’s degree usually takes from 2 - 5 years depending if you go part-time or full-time.

Hope it helps

Good luck!
