It\u2019s no wonder why. Not only is a BSN degree valued by many employers today \u2013 with 80 percent of employers preferring new hires with a BSN \u2013 it also has a variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwin.edu\/enews\/four-reasons-to-transition-your-rn-to-a-bsn\/\">benefits<\/a>: think, increased job opportunities, greater salary potential, and a higher quality of patient care.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a seasoned RN considering a bachelor\u2019s degree, you likely have many questions. For one, what can you expect to gain from a BSN curriculum? And do BSN programs offer classes that can meet the busy nurse\u2019s needs?<\/p>\n<p><strong>The RN-to-BSN Curriculum<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, RN-to-BSN programs are designed for the working nurse \u2013 RNs who have gone to nursing school, who have completed their nursing license, and who have worked (or are currently working) in the healthcare field. How, exactly?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at Goodwin College\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwin.edu\/majors\/rn-to-bsn\/\">RN-to-BSN program<\/a> structure as an example. Unlike your typical four-year bachelor\u2019s program, our BSN curriculum can be completed <strong>part-time<\/strong> in just <strong>16 months<\/strong>. This means you do not have to commit the time or the finances to a long-winded bachelor\u2019s degree program. In addition, the RN-to-BSN curriculum is offered entirely online, meaning you can take your classes on your own schedule, from wherever you are at the time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Core RN-to-BSN Courses<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So, what can you take away from an RN-to-BSN degree program? Which courses make it worth it for the already working nurse? Below, Goodwin highlights some of the core courses that RNs must complete as part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwin.edu\/majors\/rn-to-bsn\/curriculum\">BSN degree curriculum<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Foundations of Professional Nursing (NUR 300): <\/strong>For those nurses looking to advance into the role of a Health Promoter, Advocate, or advanced Care Provider, this course will be your footing. This foundational class introduces BSN students to the Nursing Theoretical Framework at the college, as well as the Quality and Safety Education (QSEN) expected of baccalaureate nurses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Health Assessment (NUR 310): <\/strong>This advanced nursing course is designed to build on a professional nurse\u2019s theoretical knowledge, as well as advance his\/her skills in administering physical exams and comprehensive patient assessments across the lifespan. Students in this course have the opportunity to perform a focused (supervised) examination.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Introduction to Nursing Research (NUR 351): <\/strong>Research is a core part of the evolving healthcare field, and as a nurse, you are committed to lifelong learning and discovery. That said, research skills are essential. This course reviews quaitiative and quantitative research methods, teaching students how to think critically and integrate findings (such as evidence-based methods, clinical research, and conceptual frameworks) into their nursing practice.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Public and Community Health Nursing (NUR 361): <\/strong>Nurses are more than just nurses \u2013 they are members of a greater healthcare community and advocates for a diversity of patient demographics. In this BSN course, students learn the importance of their partnership with the public health system, and further protecting, promoting, and restoring quality health (and healthcare) within a variety of communities and populations. This course requires 45 hours of hands-on, clinical practice.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Clinical Nursing Leadership (NUR 363): <\/strong>Leadership opportunities are a key reason why RNs go back to school for their bachelor\u2019s degree. With a BSN, you can begin to qualify for advanced positions in healthcare and nursing departments. And this course will be key in getting you there. Clinical Nursing Leadership helps establish RNs as change agents in the clinical setting \u2013 exploring management and leadership, and teaching students how to facilitate change and positively impact care settings as well as patient outcomes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Introduction to Healthcare Policy and Advocacy (NUR 459): <\/strong>As noted above, nurses are advocates for their patients. In many ways, they are also advocates for the political, economic, and social policies that go into the nursing field. This course explores activism and empowerment in nursing, providing BSN students with an understanding of how they (as well as government and policy-making organizations) can influence the greater healthcare system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Professional Nursing Leadership Seminar (NUR 460): <\/strong>The final stretch of Goodwin\u2019s RN-to-BSN curriculum is this course \u2013 giving students the opportunity to build their leadership skills and experience even further.Students analyze their ethical and professional role development, build their experiences with research and theory in nursing, and ultimately share their commitment to the nursing field through continuous learning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While this covers the basics of the RN-to-BSN curriculum, it is not the full extent. Students have the option to choose several different elective courses, from Pharmacotherapeutics to Families and Wellness. At Goodwin, your RN-to-BSN classes (and class schedule) can be uniquely designed to meet your needs, as an adult learner.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the RN-to-BSN curriculum at Goodwin College \u2013 offered online or in a hybrid format \u2013 please do not hesitate to reach out.
