Requirements: Education/Experience

permalink

I am a nursing student interested in becoming a hospice nurse. I currently have a BA in another field and have just finished up my first year in a community college RN program.

What are the requirements to enter the field? Will I need a BSN? How much general (Med-Surg) experience will I need?

I don't want to be underqualified for entry. On the other hand, I will be 42 when I get out and my occupational clock is ticking...
