ADN Programs in Maine

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the average salary for registered nurses (RNs) working in Maine is $71,040 per year!

While there are a few routes you can choose to take to become an RN in Maine, the quickest path is to complete a two-year associate degree in nursing, or ADN, program. These programs prepare students for entry-level registered nursing positions by concentrating on the skills needed in various clinical settings. And the best thing about obtaining an ADN is that after you have obtained a certain amount of experience working as an RN, you will be eligible to further your career by enrolling in one of Maine's many great bridge programs!

Of course, before ADN graduates can obtain RN positions in Maine, they will need to submit to a standard background check, obtain CPR certification, and pass their national licensing exam for RNS.
