Nurse for a chiropractor ?

Question

i always wanted to become a fashion stylist for a magazine but i have been changing my mind a lot. so now i also dont want to become a doctor chiropractor i researched a lot and you need over 8 years and its just to much time and money. so i was looking about nurses and the different types, but i dont want to be a nurse working in the hospital. i hate to see people with all the blood. so a chiropractor nurse doesn't see blood. is there such a thing for a nurse chiropractoror? do you know how many years of college and such? thank you all for your help and im sorry if this was confusing. oh and also how did you stop changing your mind on what you want to be when your older? its so confusing !

Answer 1

a far as I know it doesn't exist.  Chiropractors don't need nurses.  

Perhaps look into an occupational therapist or physiotherapist position

Answer 2

I guess you could help a chiropractor, I mean I don't see why not, and of course if you want to do a non-bloody job you could try being a dermatoligist

Answer 3

1. chiropractors do not have nurses, there is no such profession as chiropractic nurse

2. all nurses in their training are required to do blood work

3. in order to not do blood work as a nurse you got to find a clinic that rarely does it (specialists who still use nurses do this (but very rare for a specialist to keep nurse on staff now a days))

4. if you are seriously wanting to be in the health field i suggest doing something else.

5. try something in the dentistry area

side note: if you do like fashion a lot why not go to fashion school or take design at any 4 year college? or maybe just be a journalist major.

the chiropractors use chiropractic assistants which is like a 1-1.5 years of studying.  

Answer 4

My you are really confused!!!

You may want to become a chiropractic assistant and do the soft tissue work. This will invlve a much lower level of education but wouldn't be as fullfilling. maybe you should do this and see if you still want to be a chiropractor. If you want it bad enough you will find the time and money.

Have you considered studying Chiropractic outside the US?

It doesn't need to take 8 years, its down to the US education system where you do chiropractic as a post grad course and need a degree first. From what I understand US degrees teach you stuff you should have learn't in high school.

This isn't the case in Europe where they teach you it from undergrad level and don't expect you to do modules in subjects like sociology if you are doing a science degree!!

I didn't know what i wanted to do until I was 25. I drifted in and out of things and then decided to become an osteopath. i didn't have any money so I decided to work in IT to fund it. I went to night school and was lucky enough to get an IT job after 1 year. I worked hard at that and a couple of years later I did an access course in Chemistry and Biology (also at night school) to get me into the Osteopthic colleges.

So when I was 31 quit my job and went to university for 4 years.

I now have an osteopathic qualification form a university ranked in the top 50 in the UK. Not bad for a kid who left school at 16 eh?

I'm now practising in New Zealand

Edit:

Its OK to be confused. Before spending a lot of time and money pursuing a career path its important to know what you want to do. Its defficult to know this at 18. if you don't maybe you should go to college in a couple of years time after working and saving some money.

Not everybody should do a degree I beleive that too many people are too highly educated and you subsequently get people overqualified with PHD's driving cabs. In reality they end up driving Cabs because they have no business sense and cant fit in but why go through all that education and spend al that money to find that out?

NB. Every job in the world involves doing something you don't enjoy. You just have to get on with it I'm afraid.
