Facing a large projected nursing shortage of 23,000 nurses by 2020, Virginia must take major steps to add nursing jobs and keep hospitals staffed. Fortunately the state has already seen a major spike in interest in nursing, with an almost 70 percent increase in graduates from nursing programs in Virginia community colleges since 2002. More nursing faculty will be needed, but for now hospitals and health systems are committed long-term to provide funding and training to increase Virginia.s nursing workforce.

Geriatric Nursing
Geriatric nurses and gerontological nurses work in all healthcare settings to provide both preventative and acute care to the elderly population. Geriatric and gerontological nursing certification programs approved by the American Board of Nursing Specialties (ABNS) include: Geriatric Nurse Practitioner (GNP-BC), Gerontology CNS (GCNS-BC) and Gerontological Nurse (RN, BC). Professional organizations for geriatric and gerontological nursing include the National Gerontological Nursing Association (NGNA), American Geriatrics Society (AGS) and Gerontological Advanced Practice Nurses Association (GAPNA). The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts excellent job growth for registered nurses, and as the elderly population continues to grow, the job outlook will be especially favorable for geriatric and gerontological nurses.
