Nursing

Nursing is one of the largest and most popular roles within the healthcare system. There are more nurses required than in any other role within the healthcare system. Now, the great thing about this one is there’s just so many different areas you can work in depending on what interests you. You could either work with children, or with learning disabilities. Whatever it is you might chose, there’s always going to be something new to learn within the role. A nurse always says they never stop learning, which is true due to the fact you’ll just see so many different cases each day. But you will have to come to grips with the fact it won’t always be plain sailing with this career. You’re going to see people pass away, and families grieving, so you do need to make sure you’re mentally equipped to deal with this.

 

Mental Health Counseling

Mental health counseling is a whole different ball game compared to nursing. It isn’t as challenging in the terms of grievance, but you will be dealing with so many different cases, caused by so many different things that it can often be mentally draining from that aspect. But the beauty about this role is that a lot of your patients will get better, and a lot of them will come and visit you months down the line with a completely new life. Mental health is still an area that has a bit of stigma around it. Once you’re in the role, there’s so much room for progression as well. You could take a online ms in clinical mental health counseling that will give you a masters degree to further your knowledge. You’ll then be able to go onto higher positions, and potentially more exciting positions. There are always been a stigma around mental health conditions, you could be part of the reason why that is lifted!

 

Physiotherapist

Physiotherapy is the slightly more relaxed positions in the sense that you won’t be witnessing much in the way of grievance or mental health issues that could easily affect your life. You’ll have expert knowledge in all of the joints, muscles, ligaments etc. in the human body, and patients will come to your with their issues that you’ll most likely to be able to fix. The hours are still just as long as the others, but it doesn’t require you to be as much of a strong minded person.
