So you want to be a nurse?
The great thing about deciding on a career in nursing or midwifery is that it’s highly likely that you will always have work. However, some areas of England are experiencing high levels of student intake to nursing and midwifery diplomas and degrees (Devon and Cornwall for example). In these cases, you should be prepared to look into opportunities in other areas of the country. It may mean that even when qualified, there will not be the range and scope of job opportunities available to you in exactly the location you wish to work.
These circumstances are, however, constantly changing and your skills will always be required. Most likely you can return to your first choice location later in your career.
