by NRSKarenRN Staff



The Future of the Nursing Workforce in the United States: Data, Trends and Implications






Product Description:

The Future of the Nursing Workforce in the United States provides a timely, comprehensive, and integrated body of data supported by rich discussion of the forces shaping the nursing workforce in the United States. Using plain, jargon-free language, the book identifies, explains, and describes the key changes in the current nursing workforce (such as the increasing age of RNs) and provides forecasts and insights about what is likely to develop in the future. This reference offers an in-depth discussion of specific policy options to help employers, educators, and policymakers design and implement actions aimed at strengthening the current and future RN workforce. The only book of its kind, this renowned author team presents extensive data, exhibits and tables on the nurse labor market, how the composition of the workforce is evolving, and changes occurring in the work environment where nurses practice.



Another book for us policy wonks to read. Karen
