Two year degree RN vs. BSN-RN

Published

I am wondering if there is a big difference in the pay and type of duties performed by someone who is an RN with a two year degree and then someone who is an RN with a Bachelor's degree of science-nursing. Does anyone have any input on this? Is the pay different? Is the type of jobs different? Please respond if you know anything. Thank you very much..Shannon

If you were to get your ADN first, then go to work, a lot of hospitals will sponsor you to get your BSN while you work, and many only require a year or two committment to the hospital in return. If money is an object, then that would be the way to go. Also, there is the fact that ADN nurses have more practical bedside nursing training than BSN nurses do. Goodluck whichever road you choose. Only you can decide what is right for you.
