CAREER opportunities after Bachelor of Science in Nursing?
I'm situated in Brampton, Ontario (Canada). I was wondering what kind of career opportunities I can pursue with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. More specifically, I would like to know if I can pursue a family nursing career (similar to a family doctor) because that's my true passion. In other words, can I be a nurse for a family in my own clinic? If so or if not, can you list similar careers with a Nursing degree? And do I need to specialize in family practice with a Nursing degree in order to obtain such a career? An answer to any question would be much appreciated, thank you.

You canot be a nurse with your own clinic.You could become a Nurse Practitioner in a family health clinic but you would still be under the supervision of a doctor.To become an NP you must get your BSN and at least 2 years of nursing experience before you could apply to an NP Masters program(2-3 years).
