Advantages of earning your bachelor’s degree in nursing include increased earnings potential, career opportunities, learning beyond the clinical setting, positively impacting patient outcomes, professional advancement, and increased employment opportunities. BSN prepared nurses are projected to make more over the course of a career than non-degree holding RNs. BSN prepared nurses have knowledge and skills beyond the clinical setting and are able to seek job opportunities in management settings and leadership roles. Hospitals and healthcare agencies actively seek BSN prepared nurses to fill vacancies and many times, non-BSN prepared nurses are unable to fill roles due to accreditation and certification standards of these healthcare agencies. The time to act and start earning your BSN is now. What are you waiting for?
