Keep working, 2. work less, but still be able to work if you want to, 3. not work at all and have AWESOME skills to help you in being part of said family.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02674284847144040145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849484723484183542.post-72911714943117093392007-09-11T13:47:00.000-04:002007-09-11T13:47:00.000-04:00I would do BS in Nurse then MS in Nurse Practition...I would do BS in Nurse then MS in Nurse Practitioner. For many reasons. <BR/><BR/>#1 my sister has done it and is very successful. As a nurse she has earned in upwards of $45K+, she has great health benefits and flexible schedule to allow for family needs<BR/><BR/>#2 nurses are and will be in high demand. Baby boomers are scheduled to retire at 10,000 persons per day (1) and there is nobody to take care of them, there is very high demand!<BR/><BR/>#3 my sister has started a Nurse practitioner program at University of Utah and is already being recruiter by top cardiologysts to work for her (she hasn't even finished the program!)<BR/><BR/>#4 as a nurse practitioner you can chose to work only 3 days per week at starting salary of $70K + or if you don't have a family yet you can expand your hours a build a very nice clientelle. One nurse practitioner I knew made in upwards of $130K+ and she was preferred over the MDs. <BR/><BR/>#5 The Nurse practitioner program is only 2.5 years long<BR/><BR/>#6 I think you have the right personallity for it. <BR/><BR/>How about that for an answer :)? I hope you will make the right choice! Go get them!

Partly because I read your post last night and partly because I had a long talk with my dr about her nurse shortage last night.
