Washington RN Jobs
As the need for more nursing jobs increases in the state of Washington, campaigns are running to increase the awareness of the value of the nursing profession to society. Washington faces many of the same problems as other states in its nursing shortage, so a major focus has been adding nursing faculty and improving nursing education programs for the rapidly expanding number of people interested in nursing as a career. If all goes according to plan, the state will be able to reverse the scary projection of being 26,000 nurses short by the year 2020.

Registered Nurse (RN)
A registered nurse (RN) is an individual who has graduated from a diploma school, associate degree or baccalaureate program, licensed to practice nursing. American nurses take a state nursing examination, known as the NCLEX-RN, which allows them to practice nursing in their home state, or in other compact states. The Nurse Practice Act of each state governs the scope of practice of registered nurses. Registered nurses oversee patient care performed by a licensed practical nurse, licensed vocational nurse, and nursing assistants. Registered nurses, known as first level nurses in the United Kingdom, must be registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
