Why become an RN to do computer work?

No offense to anyone but I don't understand the point of going to nursing school attaining an RN or even BSN only to work in computers. It seems like a lot of work to to become a nurse then not use the license.

I just came across this question. I hope there is a better understanding of the answer to this question by now! Who else would we want to set up our admission assessment questions and anything we would have to document in a computer?!? I wouldn't want someone who was never a nurse to guess at this. It only makes sense that an experienced nurse have this kind of job. This is what nursing is all about: different types of nursing in different settings and specialties with support of experienced nurses. Unfortunately, it seems the ones who are best at supporting are the ones the higher-ups don't keep because for them it's all about money, not what's best for the patients and certainly not the ones actually doing the bedside nursing.
