Career questions tagged hospital
This question is a bit on the personal note but I'd greatly appreciate any answer. I have been to a different school for the past four years (I'm a Junior in HS) and late last year we came to a town where I thought I'd finally finish my HS years and go to a college near me. (I live in Louisiana) Last night my mother told me our lease was up and we were going to have to move out in July. I have two choices: I can stay with my mom and go to Lake Charles with her, Or, I can move with my dad in Texas and finish my education there including college(I want to become a Registered Nurse). My mom said she won't help me financially if I go to my dads. Please don't tell me that It's up to me because I really don't know, and I am just going to go to my dad's house without knowing if it's the right choice. Any advice is welcome, thanks.

Is it possible to get a degree in exercise science, and not specialize in something yet still get a good paying job?
I know I want an exercise science degree, but i'm not sure what I want to use it for. Since it is so generic and broad, can I get a bachelors degree in it, and get a good job without specializing? #sports-medicine #medicine #college #career #lost #hospital #physicaltherapy #workout #technology #desire #job
What psychology related jobs are there that can work in the hospital and with children?
I am 16 and currently a junior in high school. I have always wanted to do something that involves kids, and mental health. I have been doing a lot of research on different jobs and I don't know what I should do. I would like to work as someone who advocates in mental health (preferably psychology) and I would also like to work in a hospital setting. That being said, I don't know how many other jobs there are for psychology in a hospital other than ones that work at inpatients. I do want to go into psychology, and I don't exactly know where to start. Should I look at community colleges or find one that works more towards that career path? #psychology #career #children #hospital

What are some extracurriculars I could do that is stem/medicine based?
I’ve had a lot of ideas on what Extracurriculars I want to do but they just seem too much for me to accomplish as a 16 year old. Some ideas I had was formulating an eco friendly sunscreen using chemistry principals but I would assume you need to have a degree in chemistry. Another idea was creating a skin cancer detecting app, or starting a program by going around to different schools, and/or community centers providing information on skin cancer and hosting events with the help of volunteers from my school. Honestly this all just seems really complicated for me to do especially without a mentor. I plan to start volunteering at a kidney center next month and get a part time job on the weekends. At the moment I am applying to stem/medicine based internships. I need some advice. I am 16 and in 10th grade. I plan to major in chemistry and I aspire to be a dermatologist.
Are doctors really earning less?
It's been a good while since I asked my last question. I am now almost done with my A levels and will hopefully be in medical school for my MBBS degree next year. While I am not pursuing medicine for the pay, but rather because it is a true passion of mine and something I would be delighted to do for the rest of my life, I've always considered the high wage as somewhat of compensation for all the sacrifices doctors make. Weekends and youth spent studying instead of partying, and adulthood spent in incredibly stressful situations, literally holding the life of others in our palms, the extra cash seemed deserved. But recently I am hearing of doctors in the West being overworked and underpaid, and the NHS crumbling as patient management is outsourced to clerks with insufficient medical training. If there is anyone who works as a professional doctor or surgeon in a hospital, please do feel free to share your experience in your workplace- whether to confirm or dispel the rumour. It would be of major help to a med student just starting out. Of course, I feel obliged to say that even if I would be getting paid lower, I won't change my mind. I feel that servicing others through medicine is the best thing I can do with my life, and I would be glad to. Thank you!
