Curious to know what others do with their MSN degree! I think that many focus on the APRN roles, however I know there are many other opportunities and roles for nurses with their MSN besides APRN. So, I'd love to know what you do with your MSN.Thanks for sharing!

xoemmylouox, ASN, RN 3,150 Posts Has 13 years experience. Oct 15, 2017 I am looking at skipping my BSN and going straight for MSN. I previously had wanted an N/P role, but it seems that just about every nurse I encounter is thinking the same thing. I'm now leaning more towards MSN in management/nursing leadership. I feel like I am more suited for this role, plus all of these N/P's are going to need a Nurse to help them run their clinics
