Oh yes, it's a serious career.

Here in the USA, a Registered Nurse has to attend 4 years of college and attain a Bachelor's Degree in Nursing. They are required to take science prerequisite classes that are very similar to pre-med students. It's a professional degree with a lot of opportunity.

I am even more impressed with the Nurse Practitioners. They do the same 4 years of undergrad and then are required to do an added 3 years of graduate school training with their own form of mini-residency. These individuals are professionals with over 7 years of academic training, so when I hear people say Nurse Practitioners make upwards of $130,000-$150,000, I think it's well justified.

Personally, I think the Physician's Assistant route is just as good and doesn't take as long. Either way, you can't go wrong with any careers in the world of healthcare.

Opens a lot of doors too!  I hired many PA's and RN's as clinical specialists when launching new cardiac surgical products.  Many don't realize that PA's most often harvest the radial and or Saphenous vein for bypass surgery.
