    I recently passed my NCLEX and this is my second career also. You are on point, those are the reasons I will be practicing nursing here in America. Am a PT too.

    I’m 35 with two kids and made the decision to finally get my RN. I tried to convince myself that nursing was the right choice for me in my 20’s but I had so much growing to do. Now that I’m in my 30’s, my kids are little older now, and I can’t stop thinking about a nursing career I know it’s something Im ready to dive into. Me in my 20’s had zero Bedside manners but me in my 30’s is a whole different person - spiritually, mentally, intellectually coupled with my desire to actually want to help others is what’s convinced me I’m ready to do this. 15 years as a certified multi specialty coder and auditor has been fun but I’m ready to jump into the clinical side.

      what an incredible story. Thank you so much for sharing that. I also completely agree that the bedside mannerism, ability to connect with patients came a lot more naturally to me (i feel) in my 30s than for many of my peers in the program with less overall life experience. It was a huge benefit to be in a more mature mindset to have that aspect of nursing excellence.

    I'm in US. 31, with an MBA and I just started going back to school this summer (2022) for nursing. I have to take anatomy and physiology as prereqs before I can apply to nursing. My "Why" is what's keeping me going right now 🤣

    Such a great video. I was in the same boat I switch fields and went back to school in my late 20s I know how hard it is to restart your career. But you're doing awesome keep it up.

    I'm really glad that you're finding your path in life. It's so easy when you come from a biotech/ biomed background to se your career path as linear when in reality, there are plenty of options available! I also agree that the understanding you create by crossing borders between adjacent fields is essential to effective interdiciplinary research.

    Wow, you and I have so much in common we could be twins 😁. I too went to Nursing School that too in my 30's after graduating with a BS in Biotechnology working in Benchside/Academia for almost 8 years. I too got publish research papers and go to multiple conferences for poster presentation of my work. I have been an RN for over 3 years now for almost 2 years been working in Clinical Research at a CRO. I am so glad I found your channel.

    Hi. Your video is so informative. My query is, can foreign doctors work in clinical reseach field without canada physician license to practice?

    • @thebrownfeministcanada
      @thebrownfeministcanada  2 місяці тому

      Yes. They would not practice to the same capacity as a physician, but they can still use their clinical knowledge and do a short course in clinical research and work in a junior role (start off at the bottom and work your way up).

    Is research in nursing more theoretical or scientific? Do you write research papers in nursing within your role as a CRO?

    • @thebrownfeministcanada
      @thebrownfeministcanada  10 місяців тому

      Hello, not all research coordinator position involve data analysis/writing papers etc. Some do and those are usually when it is a physician initiated study instead of a pharma-sponsored trial.

      Hi Priya, thank you for sharing your story. It's okay to feel that way, I had the same concerns as well. But nursing is such an incredible field of work and you can do so much with a nursing degree after graduating. It will all help worth it in the end.
      With regards to age, I did find that doing bedside work on busy hospital units was physically harder for me than my fellow classmates who were ten years younger than me. But it is not impossible. In the long run, you can move to a clinic or somewhere else with monday-friday 9-5 schedules.

    I have completed my mbbs and md pharmacology from India... I am 30... Ma'am do u think moving to Canada for clinical research would be worth it???

    • @thebrownfeministcanada
      @thebrownfeministcanada  2 роки тому +1

      I think if you have an MBBS the best idea would be to do your MD exam here and while you wait to be matched into residency, use that time to work in clinical research. I have seen many people do that.
