Sophie asked:


I am considering applying to study nursing in Australia, and I was wondering what are the disadvantages/drawbacks of this career, as well as the course? I appreciate if only nurses (preferably Australian) could answer this question.

Also, I am fine with blood and guts etc, but I get a little queasy around vomit and I gag. If I decide to be a nurse, will I eventually become desensitised to this or will it be a problem throughout my career?

Is there a nursing career out there that combines Sociology with nursing?

Constantly Curious asked:


I absolutely love nursing and sociology!!! I know that social work and nursing sometimes cross over into each others lanes, but is there a nursing career that focuses on sociological problems, or anything close to this?
Please, no job offers. Only serious people who want to answer my question, only.
