I started Nursing School at 33 Yrs Old.
Ever thought of starting/changing to a new career in nursing school at a later age? In today's rapidly evolving world, the idea of embarking on a new career journey, especially at a more mature age, might seem daunting. However, the stories shared by individuals who have taken the leap into new career paths later in life serve as powerful reminders that it's never too late to pursue your dreams.
In this post, we'll explore how people from various walks of life have embraced change and found success in starting new careers, inspiring readers to consider their own potential for growth and fulfillment. For example, a student nurse by the Name of Karnika took a leap of faith and enrolled in Nursing School at 38 years and everything has been blissful.
God's plan for you is aligned with your season. I didn’t become a nurse until my 30s because in my 20s, I didn’t have a caring spirit for others. I was young and selfish

With the way people are all of a sudden coming into nursing trust, it will not always be enough jobs in the future.

My classmate was single, 4 kids and worked nights in the ER as a tech. She was the baddest in the class. You can do it friend.

I work from 3p-12a out of curiosity i know it’s different for every school but what were your typical class / clinical hours?
Reply
Class started at 7am or 8am and ended by 5pm depending on the class load that day. I chose preop for clinical because I needed to pick my daughter up by 5pm

thank you so much for your reply. 💞
I think people who pursue this or any kind of medical science degree at a more mature age than traditionally are better equipped, emotionally imo

I’m an NP and want to go to CRNA school but at 34- sometimes I wonder if it’s worth it!
Reply
It depends on you. CRNA was my goal, but at my age and having kids, I changed my mind. I knew I didn’t want that career anymore
Reply
If I started nursing school back in 2014 I def would not have graduated. Go back as a second degree was the best decision I made
