Denver Job Outlook

U.S.A. Colorado

Published

Hello, I'm a 24 year old RN moving to Denver this summer. When looking at this site there are a lot of people saying the job outlook is bad in Denver, but I haven't seen anything updated in a year. Can anyone say how it is currently?

Specializes in OB-Gyn/Primary Care/Ambulatory Leadership.

Definitely go for a BSN program straight away. Don't do ADN-BSN bridge, not in Denver. Many of the good new grad residency programs (University, Children's, Denver Health) require the new grads to be BSN new grads.

Ryandoug, I am in the Denver area, get your BSN! ADNs have a terrible time getting hired at hospitals here. I can't understand why, in my opinion, if you pass NCLEX, you are a qualified nurse, but hospitals all seem to want BSNs.

What about nonhospital jobs in clinics, LTC, home health, ect. For ADNs?

Hope, yes! All of what you mentioned will hire ADNs, as will SNFs.
