Less Than 1 Year (For Registered Nurses Only)

  • Registered nurses (RNs) are the nurses who have
    received a diploma or have had degree-level
    training in nursing (Associate Degree in
    Nursing). These nurses are therefore licensed by
    the board of nursing in a state to practice in
    the field of nursing. Registered nurses do not
    necessarily have a bachelor's degree in nursing,
    but you might wonder what difference it makes to
    have a bachelor's degree. Well, for one, a
    registered nurse with a Bachelor of Science
    qualification is given way more responsibilities,
    which means more nursing job opportunities as
    well as higher salary. This is why more and more
    RNs these days are aiming to upgrade their
    qualifications to BSN. This can be done by taking
    an RN to BSN program.
  • An RN to BSN program is a transition or bridge
    program designed to help registered nurses obtain
    Bachelor of Science degrees. This program
    includes a uniquely designed curriculum for
    nursing students who graduated from hospital
    schools, community colleges and are licensed
    nurses. An RN to BSN program is offered by
    various universities in a very flexible and
    partially online format. This program is not
    primarily online, though. The beauty of this
    program is that it can be completed in just 2
    semesters. The schedule of classes for this
    program is also made flexible to let the nursing
    students maintain employment while they are still
    completing the program.

  • Registered nurses who are looking to earn a BSN
    must have an unrestricted and current license to
    practice as a registered nurse in the state in
    which they are applying. Those who have a
    bachelor's degree in a non-nursing field may also
    take an RN to BSN program but there will be
    additional requirements, making the program take
    longer to complete. If your RN license has
    expired, you will also need to take extra courses
    and meet more requirements to qualify for the
    program.
  • Associate degree nurses who are accepted to an
    RN to BSN program are required to take these
    nursing courses that cover concepts and subjects
    not involved in lower level nursing courses
  • RNs aiming for a BSN degree must take
    professional nursing courses, which account for 6
    credit hours. These are the courses that cover
    concepts and topics that are related with how a
    staff nurse can perform the roles of a
    professional nurse. The course will teach
    students the responsibilities of a professional
    nurse, which actually has nothing to do with
    managing the nursing staff.

  • Students of an RN to BSN program must have 7
    credit hours taking courses associated with
    topics on holistic healthcare across a patient's
    lifespan. These courses deal with how a patient
    should be treated while taking into consideration
    his physical health, psychosocial wellbeing,
    nutrition and even his spiritual wellbeing.
  •  
  • RN to BSN bridge program students should take
    a 3 credit hour course on health promotion. This
    course explains to students the role of
    professional nurses in illness prevention and
    health promotion. The course covers strategies
    for the promotion of healthy lifestyles in
    various communities.
