Nursing Shortage Update: Journal of Christian Nursing: Volume 25, March 2008

"In April 2006, US Hospitals needed approximately 118,000 RNs to fill vacant positions nationwide, a vacancy rate of 8.5%.

Shortage projections of RNs by the year 2020 range from 340,000 to more than 1,000,000.

55% of nurses currently in practice plan to retire between 2011 and 2020.

Students, we need you.

"An God is able to make all grace abound to you,
so that in all things at all times,
having all that you need,
you will abound in every good work."
2Corinthians 9:8 (NIV) Holy Bible.
