An RN-BSN program helps aspiring nurses build a foundation for the rest of their nursing career. Earning an RN equips nurses with the skills and competence to do entry-level nursing jobs, but a BSN will solidify those skills and expand knowledge in key areas like health assessments, research, community health nursing, leadership, and more. In other words, they’ll give nurses the confidence to do their job well. A nurse’s role is much more than taking orders, and OCU’s online BSN will help you gain crucial knowledge to confidently advocate for your own decision-making as a nurse. Review the Curriculum
