Nurse researchers are great innovators who love to build on the existing services to make them even better and more lifesaving. Instead of focusing on primary care, your job is to study certain areas of health, illness, and health care.
Then you’ll put together some studies and look for solutions to improve on services and outcomes for a better healthcare experience. Along the way, you’ll be relied on to create research questions, design the studies, collect plenty of data, and produce reports to present your findings. It’s the perfect job for that curious scientist within you.

You’ll most likely be traveling to different stations and treating military personnel. Along the way, you’ll receive amazing benefits like free healthcare, specialized training, and housing stipends.
