I already Have a bachelors degree in clothing,textiles, and design do you think I would make more has a R.N? What should I do?

Best Answer:
Nursing is such a vast field of employment and there are lots of opportunities for flexible skilled nurses. However, nursing is an extremely challenging field both physically and emotionally. Fashion is quite different than nursing in every regard. Though it's difficult finding a job in the field that you seem to like, Fashion, I certainly wouldn't advise taking a job or career just for the sake of it. If not already, consider moving to an area that supports Fashion, ie New York or LA. Also consider working in different areas of fashion, make up artistry, hair stylist or assistant. These jobs would possibly open other opportunities to in the field that you like...Fashion.

How many fashion buyers do you know ? They need a lot of R.N.s in the US and you can live any where and have a job . Also , youll always have a job , theres always going to be sick people .

Go back for your R.N. degree. You'll make excellent money, have job security, and have flexible working hours.

It is worth looking into. You will have a lot more job security as an RN. If I were you I would take a short class to be Nurse's Aide, then work in a health care facility. You may be able to tell if medical field is right for you.

There's a shortage of nurses and as the population continues to age (those baby boomers are turning into senior citizens and are living longer now) they'll be an even greater need for them If your willing to travel to fill in shortages and move from one place to another, you can draw a very good salary.
