on a recent mission to support the nursing profession in Israel.
"There's a lot of security and a lot of variety
in nursing. I've thoroughly enjoyed my
nursing career."

World-class cancer care has a new home,
and its right dovvo the 5-free±f-roviA viour-;.
Right now, she says, she's
intrigued by the operating room.
But after getting some experience,
she might study to become a nurse
practitioner.
Greenberg, too, will add to her
nursing degree. She'll pursue a
master's in nursing anesthesiology
at Oakland University in Rochester
Hills this fall. She's attracted by
both the higher pay level and a
chance to think along different lines.
"For a woman, nursing is a great
job," she says. "I work three days
a week. A lot of nurses who have
children choose to work at night."
Eventually, Greenberg wants to
teach nursing.

Not For Women Only
Noah Solomon, 30, says nursing is
a great job for a man as well.
Solomon, a graduate of Berkley
High who is in the first year of
OCC's program, started out work-
ing in mental health then became
certified as an emergency medical
technician. Neither paid what he
wanted to earn, he says.
However, nursing is a growing
field that, he says, offers "a lot of
flexibility in what you choose to do
and you can make a decent wage
helping people for a living. My
family has a history of community
service."
Solomon, who is married and
lives in Oak Park, hadn't really
reflected on being Jewish when
it came to nursing. "If you want
to talk about minorities," he says,
males are also a tiny fraction of his
nursing classes.
Joey Marcus, 28, settled on an
accelerated nursing program at
New York University after graduat-
ing in communications from MSU
and trying a few different busi-
nesses.
A number of Jewish students are
in his class, including some who
are Orthodox, the Groves High
School graduate says. Marcus
also plans to return to Michigan,
although not right away.
This new Jewish interest in
nursing is particularly satisfying
to author Benson, now 86, who
entered nursing school in 1943.
"I, too, have met any number of
Jewish women, and men, who have
recently chosen to study nursing
— often as adult learners for a sec-
ond career," the Boston resident
says. "Personally, I find this very
cheering." Ll
