In this episode, the host discusses if there is a correlation between the cost of nursing and impact as a nurse. The National Center for Education Statistics reported that the average tuition in the 2020/21 calendar year was $9,400 for a public institution; $37,600 for a private nonprofit institution; and $18,200 for a private for-profit. This, of course, is before the additional costs (stethoscope, drug guidebook, scrubs, etc.) associated with attending a nursing program. How do one decide on a nursing program with so many nursing programs out there. And in deciding, is there a correlation between the cost of the nursing program and your impact as a nurse? I would love to know what you think.
I became a nurse in 2007 and have had stints in the emergency department, medical intensive care unit, neuro intensive care unit, coronary care unit, post anesthesia care unit, electrophysiology lab, flight nursing in the U.S. Air Force, and clinical nursing instructorship. I served as an FDA drug investigator for four years. I am U.S. Air Force combat veteran and am currently on active duty as a Lieutenant Commander in the U.S. Public Health Service. My mission is to help nurses find their voice and thrive by providing helpful tips on matters ranging from resiliency to career advice on civilian and military nursing.
