Abstract
Most of the future anticipated openings for nursing personnel in South Carolina is being driven by new job growth. Among Registered Nurses, 59% of the projected annual openings are due to new job growth. The same is true for unlicensed, direct care personnel: among those in the occupational group Nursing, Psychiatric, and Home Health Aides new job growth accounts for 71% of all anticipated annual openings in South Carolina. Among Nursing Aides, Orderlies, and Attendants 62% of all jobs are expected to be from new growth. The one nursing occupation where this trend does not hold true is among Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurses where the majority of future openings will be driven by replacement needs rather than new growth.
