Professional nurses practice wherever health care is needed. New roles and settings continue to develop in response to society's needs. There are few careers that can offer the diversity of nursing. Many factors have caused an increased demand for nursing — a demand that is expected to continue into the future.

Professional nurses practice in the Armed Forces, Public Health Departments, Home Health Agencies, School Nursing, Occupational Nurses in Industries, Insurance Companies, Clinics, and other Ambulatory Care Settings, as well as Hospitals of all sizes and types, to name just a few.
