The Bureau of Labor
Statistics reports that our nation’s health care system
will require more than 1.1 million new nurses through
2012. A recent AHA survey found that hospitals currently
have 118,000 RN vacancies. The Health Resources and
Services Administration projects that, absent aggressive
intervention, the supply of RNs in our country will fall
nearly 30 percent below the nation’s anticipated needs
by the year 2020.
