Good question — why is nursing ‘durable”
And I bet a lot of kids in pre-med tracks and nursing tracks are doing some thinking today.
My SIL is in her 3rd year of medical school right now. She HATES Obama. I asked her about the bill and she didn’t seem too thrilled but did find solace in the fact that government is going to pay off her student loans. Atleast that what she thinks.
Who wants to have to maintain a 3.6 GPA, spend $100,000+ (nursing, $300,000+ MD,)etc. to work at the DMV?!!
Also, anyone who is naive enough to assume that medical personnel salaries will not be “addressed” by Washington as a matter of cost savings is not smart enough to be in medicine....:(
