    Lots of nurses are coming out of the Phillipines and other areas outside the US. I think U.S. youngsters aren’t seeking it for a number of reasons. 1. It aint easy. Lots of hard work, lifting, moving, coming back and repetitive motion injuries. 2. It’s not easy subjects to study. Biology, chemistry, hard sciences, if your going to have to study, why not go for the medical degree? 3. It’s shift work, and that sucks. Healthcare is a 24 hour a day function. There is day, swing, and graveyard shifts -plus other crews bitch about each the other shift not doing their part. 4. The stresses and shifts make for higher divorce rates, suicides, and general death rates (including murder) than most other professions. 5. But hey, the pay isn’t bad, the greater demand has made them a better paid profession than they were in the past.
