Definitely a Bachelor's in Health Services Administration can be a good fit, especially if you're looking to transition from direct patient care to administrative roles within healthcare. This degree can open doors to various positions, such as healthcare management, operations, or leadership roles in hospitals, clinics, or long-term care facilities.

Given your clinical experience as an LPN, you'll have a unique advantage, as you'll understand both the clinical and administrative sides of healthcare. It could also be a good foundation if you're considering leadership positions or further education, such as an MHA (Master of Health Administration) in the future.

Best wishes,

Nurse Beth
