is it possible for a person who has master's degree in another field to study to be a nurse?

how lonf does it normally take to get the degree?
Answer:
A year or two, for your ADN. You will still have to take all of the nursing courses and clinical rotations. That takes about a year. Depending on what your previous major is, you might have to take a few prerequsite courses (anatomy and physiology, for one). You can probably use most of the core classes (math, english, sciences, etc) that you took for your first degree, and count them towards your nursing degree.Hope this helps...
No. You would need to take all courses included in a 4 year nursing program that you didn't take in your previous degrees.
Sure. I think it takes about 2 years to get to RN status.

The person would only need to make up basic sciences, and about two clinical years.
Yes! Go back to school as post bac and take the required classes. Many local hospitals have nursing programs that you could study in. I know lots of people that have bachelor degrees in other areas and go back to get nursing degrees. Check into a masters in health care management that would get you into the healthcare field. BUt yes it can be done.
