It is my understanding that by 2020 all nurses are to have a BSN. My question is this. Are those for nurses that ONLY have an ADN and no other higher education degrees, or for people like myself that have ALREADY a BBA in health services administration are not required to have the bachelors because I already have one. I'm just trying to figure out if the BON or whoever is making this into effect just wants those nurses who have ADN's to go for the BSN because they are already nurses and want them to have that higher education or since I'm already a nurse with already a bachelors it wouldn't be mandatory for me. Does anyone understand what I'm asking?
