Emily’s Answer

Hi Angela,
It isn't particularly a requirement but I believe that patient care is related to psychology in a way. Psychology would definitely help you gain more perspective on patients and the way they think. It would also help understand how to become more compassionate, caring, and empathetic towards patients.

Rosie recommends the following next steps:

Research different specialties in nsg
