Physical therapists can teach patients how to prevent or manage their condition so that they will achieve long-term health benefits. PTs examine each individual and develop a plan, using treatment techniques to promote the ability to move, reduce pain, restore function, and prevent disability.
There are several levels of career choices including: the Licensed Vocational Nurse (L.V.N.), Registered Nurse (R.N.), and advance practice nurses who generally have a masters degree and/or a doctoral degree in nursing.
Aspiring registered nurses can enroll in a diploma in nursing, associate degree in nursing (ADN), or a bachelorâs degree in nursing. Once you have satisfied your degree requirements in order to become a registered nurse, you will need to become licensed in order to work in the field.
