Should I get my ADN and go back later for my BSN or go for my BSN
I’ve heard and read about several people saying that going for four years is a waste of money because you do not do anything your first two years. My Career Prep. teacher said I should just do my ADN because nurses who have their BSN only make 25 cents more. I’m not sure what I want to do because I want to learn and ultimately be the best nurse I can be. I’m good with leadership which is why I’m leaning towards going for the four years because I think they get higher statuses in the ER but I’m not sure. I don’t know the difference between the two I guess. I’m looking for guidance, I’m not sure about the difference in the degrees. I just want to be the best I can be in the field I’ve always wanted to be in. Anything you can tell me will help! Thank you in advance! #nursing #trauma-nursing

If I want to go into trauma nursing, would going through the military prepare me more or should I just get my degree through college?

How hard is it to balance a family life and be work as a trauma or critical care nurse?
I have wanted to be a nurse that works in the ICU division for quite a while now, but recently a counselor told me that I would not be able to have a family at all. She also said that if I tried to it would pointless and I would be miserable. I want a family when I get older; that's something I won't be able to give up. I just want to know if it is practical to still pursue being in that field. #trauma-nursing
I'm not sure which career path is be best for me, can someone help guide me in the right direction?
I'm 23 years old, ever since I was child I've wanted to be someone that helps others. I've worked at a hospital for 3 years now, searching for the career thats right for me. I started of as ancillary staff but after less then 1 and a 1/2 years I became part of The Lift, Mobility, & Compression Team. Basically we work really close with nursing staff and physical therapy, we respond to every crisis situation (code stroke, code blue, patient falls, to an in patient getting moved up to ICU), we also are firm believers in early mobility so we work with patients doing range of motion, dangling, standing, getting them on cardiac chairs or regular chairs, ambulating them, and even helping discharge max assist patients. Right now my major is nursing, but I would not want to work as a floor nurse, recovery nurse, ICU nurse, pick line nurse, or wound care nurse. I'm thinking CVOR nurse, ER nurse, trauma nurse, crisis nurse, CRNA even though there is a lot more school required, one thing that really grasps my attention outside of the medical field is becoming a fire fighter. #nursing #registered-nurses #surgery #firefighting #emergency-room #trauma-nursing #firefighter
