How my dreams will comes true ?
My dream is to complete my diploma in nursing and midwifery, with just one year left, and return to my community to open a dispensary. This dispensary will provide essential healthcare services, focusing on treating diseases like malaria, which disproportionately affect children under 5 in my community. I am seeking support in two key areas: firstly, financial assistance to complete my remaining year of studies; secondly, funding to establish and operate the dispensary, ensuring it meets all necessary legal requirements, is equipped with essential medical facilities, and staffed with qualified healthcare professionals. Together, we can make a significant impact by improving healthcare access and outcomes in my village.

Are there any LinkedIn jobs suitable for high school students?
I've been considering searching for internships for high school students on the LinkedIn app. I'm a rising sophomore and prefer medical work, but I'm open to other opportunities. However, I haven't been able to find any internships so far. Are there any internships in my area that someone my age can get, or am I looking in the wrong place? I appreciate any help and thank you to anyone who takes the time to respond.

What is the difference between nurses who hold an MSN and a DSN? MD?
Firstly, what are some job and pay differences between Nurse Practitioners (MSN) and those who hold a Doctorate of Science in Nursing? Additionally, what are some differences between DSN Nurses and M.D.'s, aside from the large pay gap and title of doctor in a medical setting? Lastly, if one were to pursue an M.D., how much could reasonably be covered by scholarships and financial (federal) aid such as grants? Is it worth the extreme amounts of student loan debt to attend med school?
