ABSTRACT
The nursing profession has the widest range of opportunities, but the unawareness and ignorance of nurses are making them be at a dependent level only rather than independent. In most of the scenarios, administrative nurses, health care policymakers, and administrators of institutions and agencies, make and implement roles and activities for nurses to fulfill the aims of medicine and institutional bureaucracy. This problem 'forces' nursing to travel a dependent path.
A view is set forth that the problem stems from the collective failure of nursing to articulate and implement a function and product distinct from that of medicine and other professions. Making this distinction is critical to the charting of an independent path. Nursing's past and present are examined in terms of the service nursing does provide for society.
This paper deals with the various emerging job opportunities for nurses and ways to choose the best working environment for career advancement.
