I would vote for getting your BSN. Your BSN will help you get where you need to go. I have my Master's and it has taken me numerous places. I am now looking at going back to bedside nursing too. Nursing is an excellent career with numerous choices. The more education you have the easier it will be to find a job in the long run, especially if you are young do it now! Of course if you have kids and other financial issues now might not be the time. You asked for advice so here it is!

Hello, I am thrilled. Today my husband and I have decided that I need to leave corporate america and go back to nursing. I was in a hospital for 10 years and I have also been out for 10 years. I have experience working in ER, ICU and BMT. My husband was a cop when I was in the ER and that's how we met. I worked ER in a large city County ER. So.... I have an idea of what the environment would be like in the jail, but I have been out 10 years! Do you think I could do this? I am concurrently looking at taking a refresher course, but I think someone just stole the last spot! An agency is hiring for the local county jail and they have said they would take a look at me in the past. I'm just so glad to leave sales and get back with nurses! I missed nurses so much. Have a good night.
