No. Any properly trained nurse can deal with someone with epilepsy. There are some nurses who specialise in it, so they would have done more detailed studies about epilepsy, not necessarily to the extent of having a degree specifically to do with it.

What forms of nursing brings the greatest satisfaction in meeting the needs of their patients and society?

This really depends on the individual nurse. Each have their passion, and each have many specialties to choose from. What is satisfying to one may not be to another. This does not make any one of these choices less important than the other. Look below at the list of possibilities. Each nurse should pursue the area that fulfills his/her needs, wants, and desires, and with this - I believe - will promote a nurse who is more efficient, proficient, and productive which benefits the patients being served. Some specialties in nursing are as follows. Ambulatory care nurses Critical care nurses Emergency, or trauma, nurses Transport nurses Holistic nurses Hospice and palliative care nurses Infusion nurses Long- term care nurses Medical-surgical nurses Occupational health nurses Perianesthesia nurses Perioperative nurses Psychiatric-mental health nurses Radiology nurses Transplant nurses Intellectual and developmental disabilities nurses Diabetes management nurses HIV/AIDS nurses Oncology nurses Wound, ostomy, and continence nurses Cardiovascular nurses Dermatology nurses Gastroenterology nurses Gynecology nurses Nephrology nurses Neuroscience nurses Ophthalmic nurses Orthopedic nurses Otorhinolaryngology nurses Respiratory nurses Urology nurses neonatal nurses Nurse practitioners (minimum requirement of a master's degree) Forensics nurses Infection control nurses Nurse administrators Legal nurse Nurse informaticists Registered nurses (RNs), regardless of specialty or work setting, treat patients, educate patients and the public about various medical conditions, and provide advice and emotional support to patients' family members.
