Nursing and Wellness

With the world population living longer and needing more care, healthcare is one of the best places to have a career. Nurses in particular are in high demand throughout the world. 

In this field you have the opportunity to save and improve lives, to teach people how to achieve better health, to advocate for patients to ensure they have the best healthcare, and improve the wellbeing of our communities and support individuals to improve their quality of life. 

Work where and when you want; in a busy downtown emergency unit, a medical practice, or as a flight nurse transferring patients both nationally and internationally. You can travel abroad, work with surgeons, or provide in-home care for patients.
