TIP OF THE WEEK

                                                                    May 4, 2007

Did you know...?

 

Nurses Week is May 6-12 each year.  It begins on Nurses Day on May 6 and ends on May 12 which is the birth date of founding nurse, Florence Nightingale. 

 

There are nearly 2.7 million registered nurses in the United States. And, 2.2 million of them are actively employed.

 

As of November 2001, the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that more than one million new nurses will be needed by the year 2010.  The report projects that total employment will increase by 22.2 million jobs during 2000-2010, rising to 167.8 million.  Health care practitioners and technical occupations are expected to account for 1.6 million new jobs during that period.  Registered nurses represent the largest occupation in this group and should account for more than a third of those new jobs. 

 

OHS-COMPCARE wants to take this opportunity to recognize all the Nurses and Health Care Practitioners that do so much for everyone each and every day!  Thank you!!!
