Why Now Is A Great Time To Get Into Nursing

Have you been giving some serious thought to becoming a Nurse? Well, you have picked a perfect time! Aside from Nurses being in demand, there are also more places to work and higher pay!

The Perks Of Nursing

While Nursing used to mean clocking in, clocking out, and receiving a nice paycheck, today there are more perks to becoming a Nurse. Some of those perks include tuition reimbursement, health insurance, retirement plans, and personal time off.

Today, Nurses are more likely to be compensated for attending Nursing conferences and continuing their educations.

Nurses Receive Better Pay

Over the last 20 years, Nurses’ salaries have increased even when inflation is factored in. The current average salary for a Registered Nurse is $67,188 which is nine percent higher than it would be if only inflation was factored in.

Nursing Specialties

There was a time when Nursing simply meant caring for patients, but today it goes far beyond that. Today’s Nurses have the option of everything from caring for patients to designing hospitals.

Nurses are no longer stuck in one spot with the only option being to care for patients.

Nurses In High Demand

Nursing has always been a field in high demand, and that has not changed. Between 2010 and 2020, there is a growth of 26 percent expected, which translates to 700,000 new job openings.

How do you feel about becoming a Nurse now?
