The growing shortage of nurses at all levels continues to affect health care quality nationwide. If trends continue, New York will be short 17,000 nurses by 2010, and 44,000 nurses by 2020. Empire State College is responding to this need through our flexible and affordable R.N. to B.S. in Nursing program.
