A day in the life of a nurse is filled with close interactions with patients and doctors. As a nurse, you will work in a clinic, a hospital or a private office. Most nurses, especially hospital nurses, spend a great deal of time on their feet each day and are required to work long shifts. However, there is a great deal of flexibility in the profession, as nurses generally are able to create schedules that suit their needs. Nurses are largely in demand in the United States so they enjoy excellent pay and benefits as well as large incentive programs, which were established in order to attract more qualified individuals to the field.

According to Health Care Careers, a Web site dedicated to serving those in the health care profession, registered nursing is the largest occupation in health care with over two million jobs. A day in the life of a registered nurse can take many forms. Some registered nurses choose to work in a hospital while others choose to work in an office setting or as a public health nurse. Some registered nurses choose to work in nursing homes, as home health care nurses where they are able to work with clients out of their home and still some choose to work for companies as industrial nurses, providing on-site care and counseling at the workplace.
