Health reform will bring need for more nurses in Oklahoma, December 2, 2010:"More Oklahomans could soon hear: "The nurse will see you now." The prescription for hospitals and doctors' offices, which will get even busier as health care reform brings millions more people to their doorsteps, may be highly trained nurses with greater authority. Those nurses should practice to the full extent of their education and be full partners with doctors as health care reform collides with an aging population and a reduction in primary care doctors, according to the Institute of Medicine and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation."

Looks like Nurse Practitioners and Advanced Practice Nurses will have a very rosy future, if they can get into programs before 70% of the nursing faculty retire with the rest of the Baby Boomers.
