Working on co-req's for my ADN. I wouldn't mind getting my BSN first, but unsure if I'll be able to hold off on work for that long. Current plan is to start working w/ my ADN and have my employer contribute to my BSN. I've worked in healthcare as an insurance coordinator, contracting, credentialing, receptionist, medical records, scribe, and a surgical coordinator. Will having some kind of experience in the field help when applying for my 1st job as a nurse? Anyone know the salary range for an ADN in Houston, TX or surrounding areas? TIA! 0 Likes
Nunya, BSN Specializes in NICU/Mother-Baby/Peds/Mgmt. Has 39 years experience. Aug 1, 2020 Check on GlassDoor. I worked in Houston for 6 months in 2013 and I was very pleased with the salary, but I have a BSN and had 30 years experience at that point. 0 Likes
htxnanna Aug 5, 2020 Thanks gal! I reviewed that and other Google searches, but was unsure what the difference was between ADN vs. BSN. 0 Likes
nurse2b1, RN Aug 30, 2020 From what I’ve read the range is 27-31 as a new grad no specifications of ADN vs BSN; if any I was told maybe a dollar difference. 0 Likes
