Is it a good option for me to pursue B.Sc Nursing?

Hi Rahul, BSc is good for obtaining a job of a nurse in any medical establishment. Each state has its own association that registers certified nurses. Once candidates obtain qualification they can get themselves registered with the Nurses Council of their respective state. This makes them eligible to obtain a job. Other than picking up the basic nuances of nursing, nurses can go for a particular specialisation by choosing any Post Basic Speciality (one-year diploma) courses on offer. Specialisations are as follows: 1. Cardio Thoracic Nursing 2. Critical Care Nursing 3. Emergency and Disaster Nursing 4. Neonatal Nursing 5. Neuro Nursing 6. Nursing Education and Administration 7. Oncology Nursing 8. Operation Room Nursing 9. Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Nursing 10. Practitioner in Midwifery 11. Psychiatric Nursing Nurses do not remain unemployed. They easily get jobs in private and government run hospitals, nursing homes, orphanages, old age homes, industries, sanatoriums and the armed forces. They can also seek employment in the Indian Red Cross Society, Indian Nursing Council, State Nursing Councils and various other nursing institutions. Even nurses who have completed the ANM course get to work as primary health workers and midwifes in primary health care centres that are spread throughout the length and breadth of the country. Nurses can also take up administrative and teaching positions in medical colleges and nursing schools. Enterprising individuals can start their own nursing bureaus or even work on their own terms and conditions. Apart, from these innumerable openings in the domestic sector, nurses who earn international nursing certifications and fulfil the prescribed immigration criteria generally move to greener pastures abroad. Hope this helps. All the best.
