The demand for nurses is now increasing in different countries. According to Dr. Merle Mast, head of JMU's nursing department, the U.S. Bureau of Labor will need 600,000 new nurses. The 500,000 positions that will open as baby boomers retire are not yet counted in the available positions.

Most patients want to go home after being hospitalized. They easily ignore the medications and avoid the follow-up visits which are vital to them. According to Timothy Bickmore, a Computer Scientist, about 20 percent of patients who are discharged from the hospital are readmitted within thirty days, and those readmissions are avoidable. Only 8 minute-conversation happened between a nurse and a patient to be discharged.

With the 2009 National Certification Licensure Examination, UNLV Nursing School achieves 100% pass rate during the fourth quarter.
