Perhaps, advice for people looking for a profession there are and will be openings. It is far from easy. Your customers are all ill. People you like die in your care. Oh and you get to deal with attorneys, insurance companies, etc etc etc. "Kind and thoughtful," imagine what she/he goes through. Perhaps, the patient just before you was abusive,drunk etc etc etc
