Dental Field or Nursing Field?


I cant decide what field i should go into. Its between dental hygienist and a registered nurse. I really like both jobs. I was wondering if you could help me decide and give me + and - for both jobs. Thank you!!!

I must say I dont know much about dental hygienist except that they clean peoples teeth and to me they mostly have " business " hours.
RN's are very much in demand and depending on where you want to go to work you could be looking at pay wages at $25-$35 hr. You must remember though this field is not for the faint hearted but your rewards are wonderful at the end. I work at a children's hosp. and when you see the babies it makes you wonder how they manage to cope with adult ailment better then the adults themselves.
I know this wasnt much help to you but I have a lot of appreciation for RN's,seeing how the do most of the work in a heathcare environment.
Good luck!

I have the same dillema,but as far as researched nursing gives you more opportunity for even higher education if you want to.Finding the job is easier as well.Good luck.
