Bachelor of Science in Nursing
CAREER OUTLOOK
An aging population and greater access to healthcare will contribute to a shortage of
more than 1 million registered nurses in the U.S. by 2026, according to the Bureau of
Labor Statistics.* At the same time, demand for RNs with a bachelor’s degree will be
greater than ever. In 2010, the Institute of Medicine called for 80% of all nurses to hold at
least a bachelor’s degree. According to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing,
employers now recognize that education makes a difference and already more than
79% of employers are requiring or strongly preferring nurses with a BSN degree. The
growing demand for healthcare and ongoing advances in healthcare science, will put an
increasing importance on the BSN-prepared nurse.
WHAT THEY DO
Registered nurses, or RNs, provide and coordinate patient care, educate patients and
the public about various health conditions, and provide advice and emotional support
to patients and their families. Most RNs work as part of a team with physicians and other
healthcare specialists. In addition to the general nursing duties, BSN nurses are prepared
for higher-level responsibilities, such as research, teaching, management and leadership.
The American Association of Colleges of Nursing identifies BSN-nurses as providers
of direct and indirect patient care that identifies, respects, and addresses patients’
differences, values, preferences, and expressed needs. Their patient-centered care
involves the coordination of continuous care, listening to, communicating with, and
educating patients and caregivers regarding health, wellness and disease management
and prevention. The BSN nurse can apply research and expertise to design and
implement care that is multi-dimensional, high quality, cost-effective and ethical. The
BSN nurse develops the nurse-patient partnership, and translates the plan of care to the
patient. Another defining feature of this health professional’s practice is a focus on health
promotion and risk reduction.
BSN-PREPARED NURSE DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES CAN INCLUDE:
Record patients’ medical histories and symptoms
Administer patients’ medicines and treatments
Set up plans for patients’ care or contribute to existing plans
Observe patients and record the observations
Consult and collaborate with doctors and other healthcare professionals
Operate and monitor medical equipment
Help perform diagnostic tests and analyze the results
Teach patients and their families how to manage illnesses or injuries
Explain what to do at home after treatment
Research and teach healthcare issues
Manage and supervise other nurses and healthcare professionals
