For those of you with BSN's, what is it you get from your BSN that you do not get from an ADN, that is better for your individual patients?
I have my ADN, intend to get my BSN (and always did intend to, but needed to start earning money sooner than that). I understand how the extra education is useful for department/unit management skills and such. But many say that BSN is important to nursing for the patients' sakes, and I am trying to discover why. Please be more specific than "critical thinking skills" and the like.
Thanks!
