I agree. I have been an RN for 6 years. I didn't want a BSN until recently,because I am 63 and felt like enough was enough. However, I've been in a BSN program for 2 months now and can honestly say I have learned a lot that I didn't know. My genetics class and care of the older adult made my critical thinking skills sharper. I went back because I wanted to learn more and be the best I could be. In Florida few hospitals are requiring a BSN. It's preferred but ASN's are still clinical leaders in the hospitals here.
