  1. Want to be a nurse in Doctor's Office...which degree? ASN or BSN RN?

    mrspolly posted a topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I have ruled out hospital RN jobs due to many factors. I am interested in working in a doctor's office as a nurse. Which degree should I go for? What are the majority looking for?

    Hello Nurses! I am strongly considering going back to school for Nursing. As I tell my friends and family my idea, I get the usual comments about how gross it is. I am aware that there is a fair...

  3. Part time realistic?

    mrspolly posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am interested in hospital nursing, but I'm not sure I'd be interested in working FT at this point. Is a part time job hard to come by as a new grad? Is per diem a set-your-own-hours kind of deal...

    Esme12, Yes I did post a different thread about the "not so clean" parts of nursing. However, what I said was that everytime I mentioned nursing to friends/family that was their first comments, about...

    Thanks so much for everything here! You nailed it on the head! I am in self-discovery mode lately...trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up! I am definitely a realist. No starry-eyed...

    Yes, at first glance I thought, "3 12's a week, I can handle that!" But then upon further thought, I realized I'd miss out on gymnastics practices and baseball games and family dinners 3 times a...

    Sueall, funny you should mention teaching! That is actually my other idea. I think the more I think about it, the more I am going to have to leave the idea of nursing behind I really thought it...

    Thank you Elladora! I am the type of person to question everything before making a decision! I hear wayyyy to many nurses say "they wish they had known what nursing was really like before choosing...

    Yes, thank you! Not exactly what I was hoping for, but I do understand. Sounds like I have two options on either end of the spectrum.... 1. Be an MA and do menial "nursing" but have a regular...

  10. Want to be a nurse in Doctor's Office...which degree? ASN or BSN RN?

    mrspolly replied to mrspolly's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I am not 100% against hospital nursing, in fact, it was my first thought when I started looking into nursing as an option. I love the idea of the more challenging environment. I think I would love...

    Thank you to those that responded and gave great feedback. I am struggling with the decision and am exploring all possible paths. Money is not necessarily my deal-breaker. I am a SAHM now, with a...

    mrspolly replied to mrspolly's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    While I do understand that most nursing gigs are hospital-based, there are still a lot of nurses working in other types of positions. I want to be a nurse for the same reasons everyone else chooses...

  13. Want to be a nurse in Doctor's Office...which degree? ASN or BSN RN?

    mrspolly replied to mrspolly's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    The reason I have ruled it out (at this point in my life) is because I don't believe the schedule would work for my family. Maybe one day when my children are older and more self-seficient I can...
