June 15, 2005: Pennsylvania: Nursing attracts non-traditional students:"More and more people are turning to nursing as a first or second career, but the health-care industry still has a long way to go before it works its way out of a shortage of nurses and faculty to teach them.
In April 2004, the state Department of Labor created the Center for Health Care Careers to address the deficit. About $40 million was set aside for education over the next four years, according to Michele Campbell, executive administrator for the Pennsylvania State Nurses Association based in Harrisburg."
