Career Advice

After being a diploma nurse for almost 8 years I have decided to get my BSN inorder to open up my options in nursing. It seems like all the openings I see require a BSN. Considering getting my masters. I have a few classes to take and then I can start a local online program in the summer. It will take 1 year. I am considering working poole. I can get on my husbands insurance. I just think it would be nice to work when I want too while taking classes.

Has anyone had any experience with poole?? Pros and cons?? I know I will lose my benefits and will be compensated by higher pay.

A friend of mine works at a larger hospital and they are about a 45 minute drive but they could use me for poole or a weekend option which is friday day and sunday night.

    It's great that you are taking this step.

    If you go from FT into the float pool, will you lose the benefit of tuition reimbursement?

    That benefit can add up to a significant amount of money over time.

    Well it is only a 500.00 per semester tuition reimbursement. We are short staffed right now so unless I am in the pool I will not be able to get the kind of time I need to study. When you work nights that first day your off.... well you sleep it away. There are two other hospitals about an hour away that I could pick up pool time or work the two day weekend option (WO really sounds good and I could keep benefits... but the drive, :().
