la_chica_suerte85, BSN, RN Specializes in Pediatric Hematology/Oncology. Oct 26, 2015 Indeed.How hands on are Nurses? I'm leaning towards Nursing as the time schedule is very appealing.I was in your boat nearly 3 years ago and I chose nursing because I WANTED TO GET ON WITH MY LIFE. As you said, you like the schedule nurses can have so, given your family situation, you likely will find that a big plus. If you want to be more hands on, the nursing model is where you want to be at. The medical model doesn't seem to fit what you're looking for. I'm glad I chose nursing because, after seeing the difference between the 2, I enjoy nursing much more. Remember: doctors treat, nurses heal.That said, so what if you're high school grades aren't great. Go to a community college, get your pre-reqs done and transfer to a 4 year to get your BSN. It's cheaper, the pace you choose to get your pre-reqs done is completely up to you and, if you happen to be in a place where the job market is amenable to ADNs, then maybe you won't even have to transfer and get your 4 year (unlikely but not impossible).Good luck! 0 Likes
