With nurses outnumbering doctors three to one in the U.S., the Washington Center for Nursing (WCN) aimed to spotlight the vital role of nurses and their ongoing development. We partnered with them as a whiteboard animation video company to create a compelling explainer video that simplifies how WCN manages nurse supply, demand, and education. Through our whiteboard animation services, we delivered a clear, accessible message that highlighted WCN’s mission to support and elevate the nursing workforce with the dignity and recognition they deserve.

00:00A healthier Washington State starts with you, nurses.
00:05And the Washington Center for Nursing is here to support you.
00:09We are the nonprofit State Nursing Workforce Center for Washington.
00:13We help build a diverse and highly qualified nursing workforce.
00:17And we need your help to help you,
00:20the largest health profession in the state and the nation.
00:24Good care starts with data.
00:26WCN uses data to provide an accurate picture of Washington's nursing workforce
00:32to inform health workforce policy in the state.
00:35In nursing, there are three primary categories of data.
00:38Supply, demand, and education.
00:42Let's understand how the data is collected and used.
00:46First, supply data.
00:48Nursing supply data is collected from nurses.
00:51In Washington in 2021, there were 101,239 registered nurses,
00:5811,460 advanced registered nurse practitioners,
01:02and 10,792 licensed practical nurses.
01:07Sounds straightforward, right?
01:09But it is far more complex than that.
01:12The actual numbers are in a constant flux.
01:15And supply research goes beyond just the number of licensed nurses in the state.
01:21The characteristics of the state's nursing workforce, such as age, race and ethnicity,
01:27licensure type, education level, where nurses live versus where they work, and more,
01:34is also important data.
01:36This data is collected when nurses apply for or renew their license.
01:40Ensuring that the state can proactively plan for a strong supply of nurses.
01:45Now, let us look at a second type of nursing workforce data, demand.
01:50Demand is the recruitment and retention of nurses by employers.
01:54Nursing demand data is collected from employers.
01:58Demand studies measure a snapshot in time.
02:02Employer data includes turnover rates, position vacancies, length of recruitment, and more.
02:11One way Washington collects demand data across health professions
02:14is through the Health Workforce Sentinel Network, which WCN helped develop.
02:19As you can see, demand data helps to identify the need for nurses.
02:24Let us finally look at nursing education data.
02:27Nursing education data is collected from nursing programs.
02:31It serves as a resource for policymakers, media, and nursing schools.
02:37Nursing education data gives information about the students and faculty in those nursing programs.
02:43Currently, the Washington Center for Nursing partners with community organizations
02:48to promote nursing as a career.
02:50WCN also leads programs that support the growth of a diverse nursing workforce.
02:56All three nursing data sets together – supply, demand, and education – help us better understand the state's nursing workforce.
03:05For example, from supply data in 2021, we know that there were 10,792 licensed LPNs.
03:13However, this number does not give us the whole picture.
03:16Since 20% actively work outside of Washington, 10% are employed in other fields, and 21% work in non-staff nurse positions.
03:26This leaves 5,289 LPNs available to fill LPN jobs.
03:33From the education data, we know the number of LPN students Washington graduates each year.
03:39Using the data, we can calculate the LPN supply in 2021.
03:45From the demand data in 2021, we know that there were 7,872 LPN jobs in Washington.
03:53Jobs available versus supply in this example tells us we had a shortage of 2,345 LPNs in 2021.
04:02As the state's nursing workforce center, the WCN collects, analyzes, and publishes data reports on Washington's nursing workforce on our website, wcnursing.org.
04:15We frequently do this with partners.
04:18Nursing data has helped to increase the salaries of nursing educators,
04:23raised awareness of the need for diversity in the workforce,
04:27helped to create scholarships and loan repayment programs, and more.
04:31All with the goal of improving the health of our communities.
04:36WCN also works to increase the quality of nursing workforce data in the state,
04:41and encourages the state to strive toward best practices and workforce data.
04:46Your data is critical to helping Washington meet its nursing workforce needs.
04:51We assure you that your data will be secure, used only anonymously, and only for the specific purposes outlined here.
04:59Help the Washington Center for Nursing help you transform communities in Washington State through increased access to quality nursing care.
