A New Year for Nursing
Well, we are heading in to a new year which is seeing most countries dealing with an economic recession. What will this mean for nurses and their profession? First off, it is a job that is recession proof. But that does not necessarily mean wages will keep up with inflation. Seems New Brunswick may actually see a salary drop for a Nurse 2 position go from $69,000 to $60,000. Many provinces are considering allowing private health clinics to open, more and more children and adults are becoming obese, the Canadian government is considering taking away consumers ability to buy herbal supplements at health food stores...it will be interesting to see where this new year leads.
