[QUOTE="SMS, post: 3529803, member: 42"] When did I say the job requires it? There’s a difference between the job requirements and the competitive environment in the job over the length of a career. A large number of new nurses are entering the field with BSNs (every new nurse her hospital has hired and that she has oriented in recent years) and it is increasingly becoming a discriminating factor for moves into new positions and specialty areas. My bride only has her associate’s RN because she made the career switch at 40 and already had her B.S. in Management. She also didn’t care much about career progression or moving into some of the more specialized areas opening up to nurses. A younger person with a longer career in front of them will be competing against B.S.N.s for jobs and desirable positions within jobs as the years go by. [/QUOTE]
