Greeetings Anthony I concur with my colleague and if you want statistics I would suggest that you contact the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation. Depends upon what you want to do as a nurse. The world is your oyster as long as there are people you will always have a job except immunization clinics children clinic or school nursing. These nurses usually die before they leave their positions.
Just a thought.

Eric, can you clarify that last point? Do they die because their roles put them in danger or do you mean that nurses in these positions tend to not give up their jobs leading to fewer openings for others? Or did you mean something completely different?

Hi Anthony,
Thank you for your question. Hopefully you are interested in becoming a nurse. You first must complete the school to be a nurse and depending on how much school you were looking at Nursing school can range from 1 year for an LPN/LVN or an RN has 2-4 year programs. After completing those you take a Board exam. When you pass that you become a Nurse! Now to your actual question. If you complete the above the percentage you will be hired as a nurse is 100% there is always a nursing shortage and unlimited openings for Nurses. It is a great field to get in too. You never have to worry about finding a job that’s for sure. Good luck

There are more nursing opportunities than there are nurses.
Right now, there is a tremendous shortage of nurses for a couple of reasons. First of all, the Baby Boomer generation is has reached the age or is nearing the ages where they require more health services. Secondly, the pandemic "burned out" a lot of nurses because of a lot of reasons...the way they felt hospitals did not care about them or their emotional or physical well-being, the way they watched people die alone, the horrific way Covid ravages a body, the hours and hours of wearing full-on PPE without the opportunity to have a drink of water or go to the bathroom...I can't even explain what it was like.
But there were a lot of nurses that quit nursing completely and so many more that quit hospitals and became legal nurse consultants, utilization review nurses, remote telehealth nurses and so on.
Since that one degree that allows you to get a nursing license allows you to serve in SO many ways, and there are literally hundreds of ways to be a nurse and in literally hundreds of different environments, there will always be a need for nurses. As the Baby Boomers pass away over the next 20 years, you may want to position yourself in an area of expertise that provides job security beyond that time frame or even open your own business!
