The two program options accommodate students who may have different life needs. Diploma RN's must seek credit by examination in order to satisfy program credit requirements. The job prospects for nurses are virtually unlimited and available worldwide. With the baccalaureate degree, the nurse will be able to qualify for certain positions which are limited to BSN recipients, such as being commissioned as an officer in the armed services, working as a public health nurse, or qualifying for positions of leadership. Nurses can be found in all departments within a hospital, as well as in homes, clinics, hotels, and factories.
Most nurses work for an agency, but some nurses work independently and are self-employed.
Job satisfaction is found with a competitive salary to other professions. Most of all, nurses gain satisfaction from knowing that they have helped another person in time of need. Any qualified student may be admitted into the Prenursing program. Prenursing students are designated PRNU majors. Admission into the NURH program is on a space-available, competitive basis.
