Defined simply, hospitalists are physicians with a primary focus on providing general medical care to hospitalized patients. Since 1996, the hospitalist concept has grown to include a mix of mid-level practitioners, nurses, and/or medical assistants who are also primarily focused on and experienced in the complexities of inpatient care and clinical workflows.

Ambulatory care nursing is a specialty where patients receive medical attention outside of a hospital setting. The chief focus of this practice area is pain management, primary and preventive care, and general health education for patients suffering from chronic injuries or illnesses.

With locations practically everywhere in the US and the capacity to employ a large number of staff, hospitals are a popular choice for new graduates or seasoned nurses seeking their next role. However, as with any major life choice, there are positives and negatives to consider about the hospital work environment before deciding where to take your career.
