ADN Programs in Florida

Have you been thinking about beginning a career as a registered nurse (RN) in Florida? Are you limited in the amount of time that you can spend completing a training program? If you answered "yes" to both of these questions, an associate degree in nursing, or ADN, program could be the best choice for you. ADN programs in the Sunshine State, like in other states, offer the quickest path to a career as an RN, and upon graduating, you can look forward to an average salary of $69,510 per year, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).

Working as a registered nurse in Florida, like in other states, offers many fabulous benefits. First, like most other states, there is a huge demand for qualified nurses in Florida, and with an ADN, you will have the opportunity to choose among a wide range of employers. Additionally, registered nurses who possess ADNs can choose to advance in their careers by enrolling in accelerated ADN to BSN bridge programs.

When you finish your ADN program, you will need to take and pass the national licensing exam for nurses. After passing the exam, you will be licensed as an RN and can begin looking for employment in Florida.
