Yours truly believe, and is sure that many people will agree, that nurses are an essential pillar of the healthcare community. They must know patients and diseases, keep an eye on symptoms and be able to detect the slightest changes in their patients so that they can then pass the message to doctors. “Employment of registered nurses is projected to grow 16 percent from 2014 to 2024, much faster than the average for all occupations”, according to the Bureau of Labor.
As for their median wage, the BLS puts it at $68,450 per year in 2016.
