Synopsis
The supply of nurses is contracting as the number of new registrants declines and a substantial proportion of nurses near retirement. Using data from a national survey of 6000 registered nurses, this report provides an assessment of the stock of registered nurses and the numbers required to maintain the status quo. It contends that the number of newly qualified nurses engering employment would have to rise by more than 24,000 per year in the first decade of the 21st century.
