Your job duties could include caring for wounded soldiers, refugees, natives of occupied territories, military families living on base and others who need nursing attention.

Travel Nurse: One of the most popular registered nurse jobs is that of travel nurse. You'll never get bored because your agency will assign you as needed to different locations.

Doctor's Office: There are many kinds of doctors, from the general family practitioner to the specialist who focuses on one area of the body. Doctors of all kinds need RNs in the office to help with tasks such as taking temperatures, blood pressure readings, drawing blood, administering injections, recording data, assisting with procedures and much more.
