Question
Hi I am in barbabdos and is trying to pursue my studies in nursing wat are some of the subjects thought annd wat are the main duties of a nurse

Answer
The duties of a nurse are numerous. It all depends on what field of nursing you intend to pursue. The many duty is caring. You must be able to put your patients needs above your own. You must be willing to deal with blood, urine, feces, vomit and many other bodily fluids. You must love people, and you must be kind and compassionate. You will need to study sciences, and math. I hope this helps. Remember, nursing is not about money, it is about kindness and compassion.

Good luck in your studies. I love being a nurse.
