Sometimes, sometimes not. RN - in this sense - means one thing, registered nurse. ADN means associates degree in nursing (typically an RN). You can be an RN graduating from a diploma program, associates degree (ADN), or a bachelor's degree (BSN). In any event, all are an RN, just at from different educational levels.

If you want to become a neonatal nurse should you become a RN first how long does that take then should you take a BS N program how long is that one?

Yes, you have to be a RN to be a NICU nurse. You can become a RN one of two ways. ADN or BSN route; 2 years and four years, respectively. The ADN or BSN is the degree you receive after completing school. The RN is the title you receive after finishing school and taking the NCLEX. Some hospitals are starting to phase out ADN nurses or you have to agree to go back to school within a certain amount of time to do a RN to BSN bridge program. It really just depends on your situation what route you take. Do lots of research into multiple programs to find out what works best for you. Also start volunteering in a pediatric facility to see if it's something you really want to do.
