## [Nursing Shortage Stats and Job Outlook for RNs](https://blog.ehrtutor.com/2015/01/29/nursing-shortage-stats-and-job-outlook-for-rns)

Yesterday we found this nifty little [infographic from Adventist University of Health Sciences](http://online.adu.edu/resources/infographics/the-interspersing-of-nursing-a-geographical-look-at-the-demand-for-nurses/) in our inboxes. It looks like they've compiles all the current nursing shortage stats in one convenient pic. It looks like California has both the largest nursing shortage and highest salary -- something to keep in mind for RNs looking to relocate or just entering school. It may be worth picking a California RN program, solely for the job opportunities afterward.

That being said, a few of us in the office have been eyeing the Alaska stats. Travel nurses? Adventure? Glaciers? Sounds like it could be a job made for a few of the more travel-hungry gals around here.
