What can one do with an Associate Degree in Nursing besides be a Nurse?


In other words, what employment is available to a former registered nurse?

Are there any positions that can be performed from home with this type of Degree?

Health coaching is big right now.

If you like to write, you could also look into writing health/wellness articles and content for magazines, doctors' offices, websites, etc.

home health nurse

Teacher, Instuctor, Lecturer, or an Advisor for a college.

Look into the pharmaceutical industry. They have lots of different jobs for RNs.

Why don't you try either Hospice or become a Nurse Practioner.

You could also offer your services from home as a midwife or Medula.

You also should look into traveling nurse positions.

You get housing and pay, and may find it rewarding.

Otherwise, you could go into Medical transcribing

My sister has an Associate Degree in Nursing and she makes 100k as a Case Manager (nutshell - she tells the doctors when it's okay to admit a patient and when a patient must be discharged depending on their type of medical insurance coverage). There's plenty other things that you can do with that degree. You can work in Infection Control, Research, Medical Records as a Coder. You could manage a doctors office, work as a school nurse, any number of things. There are so many possibilites for an RN. I say....Go For It!!!
