Nursing Schools in Illinois

Illinois is the most populated Midwestern state, boasting over 12 million people and climbing. Measuring almost 400 miles in length, the state of Illinois encompasses a variety of landscapes and climates. This diversity is one of many reasons why so many people flock to the state. Illinois is a great place to raise a family, start a career, attend college or all of the above.

The nursing industry in Illinois is currently experiencing a major shortage in personnel. Those who wish to find employment as a nurse in this state will have many opportunities, particularly in urban areas. Chicago is home to many hiring hospitals, including South Shore Hospital, Saint Joseph Hospital, Mount Sinai Hospital and Trinity Hospital. Those who prefer a less populated area of employment will find many open positions in Effingham, Forest Park and Streamwood. Like the rest of the country, Illinois is eager to hire both new and experienced nurses.
