Can anyone share their AGE and YEARS NURSING? I am working on a statistics project and need to collect some data...

Thanks in advance!

You started as an aide at age 7?

LOL. I think you misunderstood. I’ve been in healthcare a total of 17 years with the first 5 as an aide and the last 13 as an RN. ?

I am 32 and have 5 years experience in nursing (plus 6 years as a CNA - which may fall under the umbrella).

I just turned 48 yesterday and I've been a nurse one year as of last week.

Clearly, second career. First was in IT and then community mental health.
