Age issues-School or in hiring?

[Barinbass]

I am over 55 and was always concerned about getting hired as an ANP once done. Those of us in this age range will compete with those much younger. Any thoughts on that? Also, are you aware of schools that seem to have a large percentage of nontraditional students? Just as soon not have to put up with any ageism and select the right place to start with. Want to transfer in some credits too. What online schools would be more likely to really have age as part of their diversity, and how hard do you thnk it will be to get hired at my age. I may be near 60 when done. Hope this was not a mistake. Staying at the BSN level will never satisfy me. It does concern me that I could have the education but can't find a job as an ANP. Hope there are others like me. Thanks, Barinbass

I want only docs. Google the words Lateral Violence. What we have always known is now evidence based. The study has been done and the book written from what I heard. Also the NLN and JCAHO seem to be getting involved.
