Research has shown that lower mortality rates, fewer

medication errors, and quality outcomes are all linked

to nurses prepared at the baccalaureate level and beyond.

Enrollment in RN-to-BSN programs is increasing in

response to calls for a more highly educated nursing

workforce. From 2017 to 2018, enrollments increased by

0.6 percent and graduations were up by 4.6 percent,

marking the 15th year of increases in RN-to-BSN

programs.

Many professional practice settings, including Magnet

hospitals and academic health centers, now require or

prefer the baccalaureate degree for specific nursing roles.

With this in mind, RN-to-BSN programs are becoming

more important than ever. We encourage

you to read the white paper RN-to-BSN Education: The

Imperative for Rapid Change to learn more about how to

encourage nurses to return to school, as well as the

types of courses included in an RN-to-BSN program.
