I am thinking about going into nursing. I wanted to teach but second guessing. Anyway i have a soft spot for hurt ppl and was wondering if the job was emotionally draining. I can deal better with sick children, than adults or old people. how do you feel after a days work or after losing a patient? or are you that involved with them?

i think all nurses get emotionally attached and drained, that comes with the job. but i think the idea of it is that the satisfaction & reward you get from helping people and saving lives outweighs the negative.
