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.
And if you want to become a Registered Nurse, you will need to earn an associate or bachelorâs degree in nursing. Naturally, job opportunities are better for RNâs who choose to obtain a bachelorâs degree. After completing their education, all nurses are required to obtain a license before they are allowed to work.
