6. Women’s Health Nursing:-
A women's health nurse practitioner (WHNP) is a nurse practitioner that specializes in continuing and comprehensive healthcare for women across the lifespan with emphasis on conditions unique to women from menarche through the remainder of their life cycle.
A women’s health nurse practitioner provides healthcare to women. As with other nurse practitioner roles, in some states a WHNP still must work under the supervision of a physician, but that is a standard that is changing quickly throughout the U.S. It is most common for WHNPs to work in an office setting or at a facility that specializes in women’s health care, family planning, or other reproductive services. Other WHNPs may divide their time between offices and hospital settings, as well as academic research and teaching.
Although the focus of a WHNP’s practice may be largely gynecological or childbearing-oriented, a WHNP is trained to address many different health issues that are unique to women. Not only can a WHNP provide care for acute and chronic health problems, but they are also skilled in offering health counseling services as well as preventative services, and referrals to relevant specialists when necessary.

8. Evidence-based Clinical Practices:-
Evidence-based practice (EBP) means using the best, research-proven assessments and treatments in our day-to-day client care and service delivery. This means each clinician undertakes to stay in touch with the research literature and to use it as a part of their clinical decision making. EBP also means weighing the value of each part of the research evidence with clinical data and informed client choice. To be accountable for our EBP we should record both the decisions made and the evidence we used. An EBP clinician will also collect data to show that the clinical decision is helping address the client’s goals.
The core activities at the root of evidence-based practice can be identified as:
The core activities at the root of evidence-based practice can be identified as:
A questioning approach to practice leading to scientific experimentation
Meticulous observation, enumeration, and analysis replacing anecdotal case description
Recording and cataloging the evidence for systematic retrieval.
9. Evidence-Based Medicine:-
Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is the conscientious, explicit, judicious and reasonable use of modern, best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients. EBM integrates clinical experience and patient values with the best available research information. It is a movement which aims to increase the use of high-quality clinical research in clinical decision making. EBM requires new skills of the clinician, including efficient literature-searching, and the application of formal rules of evidence in evaluating the clinical literature. The practice of evidence-based medicine is a process of lifelong, self-directed, problem-based learning in which caring for one’s own patients creates the need for clinically important information about diagnosis, prognosis, therapy and other clinical and health care issues.
The EBM-oriented clinicians of tomorrow have three tasks:
To use evidence summaries in clinical practice
To help develop and update selected systematic reviews or evidence-based guidelines in their area of expertise
To enroll patients in studies of treatment, diagnosis, and prognosis on which medical practice is based.
10. Evidence-Based Nursing:-
Evidence-based nursing (EBN) is an approach to making quality decisions and providing nursing care based upon personal clinical expertise in combination with the most current, relevant research available on the topic. This approach is using evidence-based practice (EBP) as a foundation. EBN implements the most up to date methods of providing care, which has been proven through appraisal of high-quality studies and statistically significant research findings. The goal of EBN is to improve the health and safety of patients while also providing care in a cost-effective manner to improve the outcomes for both the patient and the healthcare system. EBN is a process founded on the collection, interpretation, appraisal, and integration of valid, clinically significant, and applicable research. The evidence used to change practice or make a clinical decision can be separated into seven levels of evidence that differ in the type of study and level of quality. To properly implement EBN, the knowledge of the nurse, the patient’s preferences, and multiple studies of evidence must all be collaborated and utilized in order to produce an appropriate solution to the task at hand. These skills are taught in modern nursing education and also as a part of professional training.
11. Gerontological nursing:-
Gerontological nursing is the specialty of nursing pertaining to older adults. Gerontological nurses work in collaboration with older adults, their families, and communities to support healthy aging, maximum functioning, and quality of life. The term Gerontological nursing, which replaced the term geriatric nursing in the 1970s, is seen as being more consistent with the specialty's broader focus on health and wellness, in addition to illness. Gerontological nursing is important to meet the health needs of an aging population. Due to longer life expectancy and declining fertility rates, the proportion of the population that is considered old is increasing. Between 2000 and 2050, the number of people in the world who are over age 60 is predicted an increase from 605 million to 2 billion. The proportion of older adults is already high and continuing to increase in more developed countries. In 2010, seniors (aged 65 and older) made up 13% and 23% of the populations of the US and Japan, respectively. By 2050, these proportions will increase to 21% and 36%. Geriatric nurses are expected to be skilled in patient care, treatment planning, education, mental health, and rehabilitation. They also take on many roles in the workplace. The main responsibility is a caregiver. They can also be advocates, counselors, and educators for their patients.
12. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN):-

Nurses also must be licensed in their states, which require passing an exam. It is estimated that projected job growth by 2024 will be 16%.
20. Travel Nursing:-
Travel nursing is a nursing assignment concept that developed in response to the nursing shortage. This industry supplies nurses who travel to work in temporary nursing positions, mostly in hospitals. While travel nursing traditionally refers specifically to the nursing profession, it can also be used as a blanket term to refer to a variety of travel healthcare positions, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology and even doctors and dentists. Reasons cited for pursuing travel nursing opportunities include higher pay, professional growth and development, and personal adventure. Agencies may submit applications for numerous positions concurrently on behalf of a traveler. A travel nurse is a nurse who is hired to work in a specific location for a limited amount of time. Travel nurses typically work 13 week periods in one area and move around the country depending on where they are needed. Because the demand for nurses is so high, there are often shortages in certain areas, and a traveling nursing will be hired to come in and work in a specific position for a short amount of time. The major benefit of travel nursing is that you get to choose where you live and work. If you are tired of your current location or want to get away from cold weather for the winter, you have the ability to find a job in a different location and move for a short period of time.
Market Analysis
Introduction:-
Nursing is defined as the diagnoses and treatment of human responses to actual or potential health problems. Nurses do a lot more than care for physical and psychological symptoms.
Simply stated, “Doctors cure but Nurses care”. The role of a nurse has changed over the years. By creating a formal Nursing training program, Florence Nightingale is credited to bring respectability to the profession of Nursing. Nightingale’s philosophy of Nursing influenced and changed the profession for good. These principles of cleanliness, disease prevention, nurse/patient relationship, continuing education and medical teamwork are still the basis of modern Nursing training.
The Nursing profession has become both a science and an art. Nurses use evidence-based knowledge while conveying empathy, kindness, and concern, to care for patients holistically. Nurses also play the role of educator, teaching patients and families’ ways to maintain optimal health by promoting wellness, educating about medications, health problems and measures to prevent complications from diseases.
Nursing care refers to collaborative and autonomous care of individuals of all ages, group, communities, and families by skilled person or nurses. Nurses are trained professionals which promote health and prevent diseases. Nursing care includes approaches to personalized care with more safety, convenience, and comfort.
Throughout the 21st century, the role of the nurse has evolved significantly. Nurses work in a variety of settings, including the hospital, the classroom, the community health department, the business sector, home health care, and the laboratory. Although each role carries different responsibilities, the primary goal of a professional nurse remains the same: to be the client's advocate and provide optimal care on the basis of evidence obtained through research. In recent time there is increased demand for Nursing care due to rising aging population. Rising concern for better healthcare and increasing prevalence of various diseases such as diabetes and cancer are some of the key factors driving the growth of the global Nursing care market. In addition, increasing healthcare awareness and long-term care system is also fueling the growth of the global Nursing care market. However, lack of reimbursements for Nursing care and the high cost of healthcare is restraining the growth of the global Nursing care market. In addition, lack of skilled professionals is also restraining the global Nursing care market.
The rise in personalized care would develop an opportunity for the growth of the global Nursing care market. However, lack of proper healthcare system in rural areas and availability of less number of trained nurses are some of the key challenges for the growth of the global Nursing care market. Increasing home care market is one of the trends in the global Nursing care market. Some of the major companies operating in the global Nursing care market are Emeritus Corporation, Genesis Healthcare, and Life Care Centers for America, Kindred Healthcare, and Extendicare.

About Tokyo:-
Tokyo, Japan’s busy capital mixes the ultramodern and the traditional, from neon-lit skyscrapers to historic temples. The opulent Meiji Shinto Shrine is known for its towering gate and surrounding woods. The Imperial Palace sits amid large public gardens. The city's many museums offer exhibits ranging from classical art (in the Tokyo National Museum) to a reconstructed kabuki theater (in the Edo-Tokyo Museum).
Tokyo is a mega-metropolis of dizzying contradictions, both familiar and foreign. It has neon, skyscrapers, and salaryman crowds, packed trains, cutting-edge architecture and futuristic technology. But it also has ancient shrines, plant-covered wooden houses, cycling grannies, old-school sweet shops and village-like lanes. It is one of the planet’s most densely populated cities (as any rush-hour train journey will demonstrate), with a hyperactive skyline that changes as regularly as the sun rises and sets. Yet it is also a city rooted in its traditions and in possession of a calm and efficient rhythm that belies its sprawling dimensions. And even though its home to a 13 million-plus population, trains run on time, there is no public litter and street crime is near non-existent. In short, it works.
Another key enticement is the food from sushi to soba and everything in between. Tokyo is a nirvana for foodies and has the world’s highest volume of Michelin stars in a city. Shopping is another highlight it’s worth bringing an empty suitcase to fill with hard-to-resist gadgets, trendsetting garments, and treasures from craft and design stores
Why Japan?
According to reports from the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, Japan, the country spent $480 billion on healthcare in 2013, which approximates to 9.8% of the GDP. The numbers are expected to increase 3% every year and reach 10% of the GDP by the year 2018.
