Trauma nurses' job is to handle minor and acute problems, prepare patients for an emergency operation, and assist surgeons during an operation.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why or why not? 
    I think I would like to be one because I have always wanted to be a registered nurse and this is just a higher level to that. Being a trauma nurse would mean seeing someone hurt or injured but if that means I get to help people feel better I would have to have a strong stomach.
