Greetings all,
Hope this is the proper place to ask for this - but I have strong desire to pursue Holistic Nursing once I have completed my BA. I have yet to find any schools that are specific in offering a "masters" of Holistic Nursing, but rather it being a degree for those who have obtained a BA or higher.
I'm asking what kind of schools, that I may physically attend, offer something to this extent? If a path would have to involved "Health Sciences as an Art" type to acquire this, I'm not opposed. But I am planning ahead and may just be moving in six months and would like to find a school (or near) that offers a degree of BA Nursing and a higher level dealing with Holistic approach.
Thanks for all the help!

I do not know of any MSN programs that are holistic but I graduated from a holistic BSN program and am eligible to sit for the exam to become a certified holistic nurse (finding the time to study now that I am an RN is a little difficult). If you have not graduated from a holistic nursing school you can take additional courses to become eligible to sit for the exam.
Well, I've thought of this route and have wondered such that I should consider obtained a BSN degree to have a stable, secure type of job with a "solid" background if you will.
If I may ask, where did you obtain your degree at and what kind of jobs are you capable of to pursue with a degree like this at the bachelor level?
