All the research and information that I have been reading says that the average age of a nurse is now 48 years old. I wanted to take an informal poll and see what the average age of nurses on this board is .... Not sure how we can do this, except to ask everyone to list their age. Perhaps me or someone else can average them and see if our nurses match the statistics.

I am 40!
