In 2010, the Institute of Medicine recommended that 80% of the nurse workforce have their BSN or higher. Why? Better patient outcomes. YOU want to become a nurse to help people & a BSN can better prepare you to be the best nurse you can be.
- Earn more! According to PayScale, the average annual earning potential for a nurse with an RN is about $68k, with an ADN is $73k, and with a BSN is $89k.
- Be promotable! Having your BSN is often a requirement to lead or manage a team of nurses or to work in departments that have greater patient care requirements.
