I'm 18 years old and I'm currently a volunteer at a hospital. I'm interested in majoring in nursing. What other jobs besides becoming a CNA can I get within the healthcare field at my young age? I have no experience.
Patient representative (registering patients in the ED, taking their insurance information, etc), dietary aide, patient transport, unit secretary, environmental services.
So did it take her a year to pass NCLEX?The OP is 18 and hasn't started working on her degree yet. No way she can get her BSN in one year, so how is your post helpful?
exactly his post sounds fishy, a fresh high school graduate ( unless they started taking pre requisite in high school) will take atleast 1 -2 years of courses for pre requisite full time and then another 2 years to complete the rn program whether it be adn or bsn. Thats just the minimum, it make longer based on the amount of courses required for the program and if you are waitlisted.

My ADN program was 2 years, start to finish -- no pre-reqs needed other than high school requirements. I had a couple of "fresh-out-of-high-school" classmates who graduated high school in June 2012, took a couple of classes in the fall of 2012, started the program with me in Jan 2013, and graduated Dec 2014. Very doable!
