Healthcare needs are increasing as the population of the United States ages, which are two factors driving the need for nurses, and the demand for nurses is anticipated to rise significantly in coming years. There is a projected nursing shortage of over one million nurses by 2020, with a current growing demand of over 2.74 million registered nurses at present.
