  • 2025 National Workforce Study Survey

    By: Sandy Boring Sandy Boring , 20 hours ago
    Greetings Rural School Nurses!
    It is the final month of the 2025 National Workforce Study Survey (which closes on 3/1/26), so I am sending one final reminder to be sure that the researchers are receiving data from rural school nurses. There is so much we need to know about the rural school nursing workforce in order to envision solutions to address the barriers we face. I am attaching a one page overview of the survey and a list showing the number of school nurses who have completed the survey in each state.  
     
    Please complete the survey if you have not already done so, and pass it on to your colleagues!
     
    Thank you in advance! :)W
    Complete message from  Alexandria Albers:
    You are invited to participate in the 2025 National School Nurse Workforce Study Survey!
    The National Association of School Nurses (NASN) is conducting the 2025 National School Nurse Workforce Study Survey to collect data on school nurse education, credentialing, team support, and workforce experiences. The goal of the data is to advocate for greater support, visibility, and resources for school nurses.
    Time commitment: Up to 30 minutes
    Eligibility: Have an active nursing license, provide school nursing services in a school setting.

     ********************************************************
    Survey results are:
    • Confidential and you will never be individually identified.
    • Results will only be reported at state, region, or national levels. You may voluntarily provide your ZIP code and select the school (or schools) where you work so we can determine how representative the survey is.
    There are no direct benefits to you, but your responses will provide valuable insight into school nursing and will strengthen NASN’s ability to advocate for resources and support school nurses’ needs. The risks are minimal.
    If you have questions about this study, please contact Alexandria Albers (aalbers@nasn.org)
