Duties of a nurse

Administer medications and treatments independently, as outlined in the Health Professions Act or as prescribed by a physician or according to establish policies and protocols
Monitor, assess, address, document and report symptoms and changes in patients' conditions
Working Conditions
Nurses mainly work in health-care facilities, such as hospitals, clinics, residential facilities, and doctor's offices as independent practitioners or team members. Community and public health nurses travel to patients' homes, schools, businesses, community centres or other sites.
Most nurses work 8 to 12 hour shifts, usually on rotation, including weekends, evenings, nights, and holidays. On average, full-time nurses work 36 to 40 hours per week. Long shifts can sometimes cause fatigue, leading to a higher risk for workplace injuries. However, part-time work is available and not uncommon

EMPLOYMENT OUTLOOK
A growing and ageing population will require more health services, which will result in an increased demand for registered nurses. Government has
annually increased funding for health services and facilities, which will contribute to the increase in new
job openings for nurses. There will also be a considerable number of jobs available due to the
need to replace experienced workers as they retire.
There is currently strong demand for nurses in all regions and settings in the
province. However, the current supply of nurses and new graduates is insufficient,
particularly in northern and rural regions. To address this situation, the
B.C. provincial government has created additional training spaces in public post-secondary institutions, and has offered loan forgiveness to nursing graduates who commit to work in under-served
regions of the province.
CAREER PATHS
Some individuals may work as health care aides or practical nurses before commencing education for registered nursing. Registered nurses typically begin in an entry level position in a medical or surgical unit. Increasingly, new graduates are finding employment in community health and specialty areas where historically, new graduates were not hired until they gained experience. With additional certification, registered nurses may specialize in areas, such as emergency care, oncology, psychiatric care, critical care, paediatrics, geriatrics, palliative care, rehabilitation or occupational health.

CURRENT WORKFORCE
EMPLOYMENT OUTLOOK
As this is a very large occupational group, it is anticipated that many positions will be available. Job openings will result primarily from the need to replace workers who retire.The expansion of career preparation training has opened up new opportunities for secondary teachers in areas such as business office management, agricultural technology, food services, restaurant and hotel service and management, applied physics, environmental studies, construction, drafting, mechanics, textile and clothing production, health and social services. Individuals who have expertise in these areas will have an advantage when applying for specialty positions. Industry sources report that there is a shortage of trained teachers in some areas of the province (i.e. rural areas), but a surplus of trained teachers in others. Secondary teachers specializing in advanced math, physics, chemistry, French and French immersion tend to be in higher demand in all areas of B.C. As well, there is expected to be an increasing need for teachers in such fields as business education, technology education, home economics, special needs and ESL.
