How to become a NICU Rn
Hello I graduated in 2017 and I am finally at a place to go for a degree. I want to become a NICU RN. However I have no idea how to start, should I go for prerequisites 1st at a community college then apply to a nursing school? Can I go straight for a BSN after I complete my perquisites? Is they're an online accredited college that will transfer my prerequisites? I need help with the steps/specifics. I would be the only person to even go to college in my family, so I have no idea how to do this. #nursing #medicine #college #healthcare #NICU #nurse
