It does but experience also plays a big part, but eventually depending on where you work absolutely it can help.

Time, effort, and money to the MBA can pay off in the long term, depending a lot on where you are and the company. Ideally you can use experience to get into some more money, because MBA will initially be a lot and making up for that time doesn’t always pan out for everyone and sometimes it does exponentially.

As someone with an MHA, I can confidently say that you should go get an MBA. It’s the same classes/courses but MBAs typically get offers 60-100k higher coming out of grad school. There are some MBAs I went to school with that make double what I make as an MHA

Nope. All i have is a B.S. i may get a MHA because i want to get a C-Suite role in a few years. They help but aren’t not required

Definitely worth it. Got mine at 22. Did a couple odd jobs after but was eligible to sit for boards to be a nursing home administrator. No luck with jobs so I went with an unpaid internship at a 250 bed facility until fully licensed. Now fast forward to this reply to your post. I am now 24 and I am a nursing home administrator at a small 60 bed facility. Could never have been able to do so without that degree.

I need some advice. I’m the Director for a women’s only RTF. Everyone on site is my direct report, with the exception of the therapists (they report to the Clinical Director). The clinical director is not usually on site, since we have multiple locations, and she is the CD for the entire company. One of the therapists has been a manipulative snake since she started here last December. This is her first job after college and she just turned 23. See comments for more info…
