It is a misunderstanding that nursing jobs are available only in hospitals and healthcare institutions. In fact, the demand for nursing jobs out of medical institutions is much larger than inside them. There is a high demand for nurses in the travel industry, such as cruise liners and airplanes. Nurses are also required in schools, colleges, offices and other public institutions where a lot of people are always present. Nurses are also recruited for insurance policy work, handling patient databases, research and consulting.
