Every year thousands of qualified nursing students are turned away from U.S. Nursing Colleges. In fact, in 2008, U.S. nursing schools turned away some 49,948 qualified applicants from baccalaureate and graduate nursing programs. This was largely due to these schools lacking faculty and clinical sites, and having insufficient classroom space and clinical preceptors. Independent studies indicate that this shortage of nurse educational capacity is only expected to worsen as the baby boom demographic continue to age and as the average age of our country’s population of nurses and nurse instructor’s  continues to trend up.

The shortage of nursing school capacity is exaserbated by our current and long standing shortage of nurses. Further, there is a clear consensus among independent workforce researchers that this shortage will only become more pronounced moving forward. This undoubtedly explains why students interested in pursuing nursing careers, is now very high. It also explains why the pertinent educational concerns need to develop a more comprehensive plan relative to how we train our next generation of nurses. To that end, Worldwide Healthstaff and St. Luke’s College of Nursing are making this new and innovative school option available to interested students who want to get their nursing careers started today.
