It depends on the program. Eagle Gate College offers their BSN program in a blended online and in-person format. Some of these courses can be completed online, which might be a great option for working adults, full-time parents, and others who can’t attend class every day.

A Career in Registered Nursing

Registered Nurses (RNs) provide hands-on care in several medical settings, including nursing homes, long-term care facilities, hospitals, and clinics. They also educate their patients and the general public about various health conditions, risk factors, and tips for leading a healthier life. Their responsibilities often include assessing patient symptoms and conditions, recording medical histories, administering treatments, and setting up patient care plans alongside doctors and other nurses. In addition, some RNs may operate medical equipment or help perform diagnostic tests.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), employment of RNs is projected to grow 6% by 2031. Becoming a Registered Nurse can also lead to a steady source of income. The BLS reports that the average salary of an RN is about $89,000.
