So I have been working in LTC for 2 years, ASN RN since 2016 only 3years total RN work experience. Currently make above average pay for my state ($42 per hour) now plus holiday and OT after 8 hours. I am a single parent and need a reliable, consistent, but flexible position. 8hr shifts work better for us. I will have my BSN in about 14 weeks(have loans from this). I have seen alot of high paying and even remote jobs for FNPs. Online FNP programs look to be about another 2-3 years of online courses. However, I am not sure if it would be worth it ,time and money wise, to go on for a MSN FNP. Or if it would be better to work on getting certified and maybe trying a differenttype of nursing. Also open to considering other ideas.
