The medical field is booming as the growing need for health care continues to rise and more Baby Boomer–age patients need attention. In the United States there are over 3.1 million Registered Nurses (RNs), with nearly 300,000 in California.
U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projections rank becoming an RN among the top occupations to grow, even as the workforce ages. Projections estimate a gap of over one million RNs in the United States — making well-run nursing businesses more important than ever.
