Wow- can you narrow it down a bit?

Big city (Chicago) vs. Small town (Podunk, Iowa)

Teaching hospital vs. Critical access

Hospital vs. Home Care

LTAC vs. Nursing Home

A lot of the major hospital systems don't even consider ADNs, some of them do.

My apologies; let's specify. Mostly Nebraska and bordering states.

25-bed facilities-not part of a health system-rural, critical access.

160-bed facilities-part of CHI Health-This system is accepting ADNs

However, there is system in Omaha, NE 400-bed average- (UNMC) that only accepts BSN prepared nurses, they do have a couple exceptions to this rule if need be. I have applied to complete an accredited BSN program to start directly after the ADN.
