According to the 2008 reports by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, nurses may work in hospitals, home health care clinics, private physician offices, nursing care facilities and employment agencies. In some cases, registered nurses run clinics or conduct educational seminars or blood drives. Hospital or urgent care nurses may be required to work evening, weekend and holiday shifts, since most facilities of that type are open 24 hours a day, every day of the year. In some cases, nurses are on call and must be ready to work on short notice. A nurse in a physician's office, however, may have a more standard schedule.
Although the healthcare industry is changing, the BLS predicted strong growth of 22% in this profession for the 2008-2018 decade. The median annual wage for registered nurses was $62,450 as of 2008.
