How Do I Change My Career to Nursing

I currently work in a factory but wish to take up nursing. I have no qualifications for nursing. Would I be able to train while working? I can't afford to drop out of work because of my mortgage. Can I take classes locally?

    It depends where you are, but you can probably do parts of it without studying full time eg the sciences and other independent modules. But at some stage you are going to have to study full time, especially as you can’t do clinical placements and other work experience without doing so.

    Hi,

    Well you might want to start out as a CNA and move up the career ladder. Why don’t you have a look/see at my site I am a nurse blogger and I wrote a three part blog on how to become a nurse.

    I wish you luck.
