Want to know why Got Nurses is dedicated to increasing the number of people pursuing a career in nursing? -Recent nursing statistics have shown that by 2020, the United States will experience a shortage of up to one million nurses in the nation. In California alone, the shortage could be as high as 120,000. -The U.S. Dept. of Health predicts that in 2015, 400,000 nurses will be required to fill vacancies left by retiring nurses. -More than 50% of todays nurses are close to retirement -Recent healthcare reforms will provide more people with access to healthcare, increasing the needs of medical staff -Because of the shortage of nurses, most current nurses work long hard hours. This causes them to burn out in the field quickly causing them to change their career path. These are just a few of many reasons why it is our goal to provide qualified applicants with the necessary funding to pursue a career in nursing.
