I was looking for other avenues in nursing to make more money whether it be going back to school. I do live frugally, thank you. This was just a post to see what other options are out there... even if I could go back and get a masters- what can you do with a masters in nursing?
I’ve been a nurse for 5 years. I truly love my job and enjoy doing it. I’m in medsurg. I thought with time I’d find my calling but have not. I am very fortunate to work 2 jobs in great hospitals. With that said I hope this doesn’t offend anyone.
But I’m tired of working two jobs and am ready to find something else and be able to pay my bills without having to work this many hours. Yes nursing salary is great but have a lot of other outstanding debt and am wanting to not stress.
I'm at a cross roads... do I go back to school? (Take on my more debt). If I do what route do I take? I’ve talked to many NPs and other nurses who have received their masters. Still having a hard time figuring it out.
Or are there any certifications I can take to increase my salary? I’ve looked into medical sales and slightly looked into nursing consult work?
Just looking for any insight at all!
Hi, I was accepted to the Simmons Nursing Program as a Dix Student. I was accepted to the Fall 2012 for the 2 year and the Summer 2013 for the 18 month program. As of right now I will be attending the Summer 2013, however I am on the wait list for the Fall 2012.
