National Resources
Below are resources produced or curated by the MNWC.
Nursing workforce data supports health care advocates, policy makers, health care organizations, academic institutions, and government agencies by providing vital information for needs and risk assessment and for identifying health care issues and funding.
The data comes from multiple sources and for that reason, collecting nursing workforce data in Maryland is a community endeavor. Please consider sharing your data with the Maryland Nursing Workforce Center by emailing Crystal DeVance-Wilson, MNWC director, at devance-wilson@umaryland.edu.
