Your aim is to improve your patients’ quality of life, whatever their situation. You’ll need to take lots of factors into account and juggle many priorities to get the best possible results for your patients.
Your nursing career will mean working with all ages. They may suffer from one or more long or short-term physical health conditions. This could include heart disease, injuries from an accident, pneumonia, arthritis, diabetes or cancer.
You could work in a variety of settings including hospital wards, outpatient units, patients' homes, and clinics. You'll be part of the multidisciplinary teams with other professionals such as occupational therapists, pharmacists, radiographers, and healthcare assistants. You'll also work closely with patients' families and carers.
Wherever your nursing career path takes you, let Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust guide your way.
