12th Annual Survey of Hospitals

The Office of Nursing Workforce is conducting the 12th Annual Survey of Hospitals in conjunction with the MS State Department of Health’s facility licensure and certification. The goal of the survey is to provide employers, educators and health care planners with accurate data regarding the current and future needs of nursing services throughout Mississippi. Results are typically used to inform the policy making and planning processes at local, regional and state levels.

With current state and national attention focused on recruitment and retention of nurses, it is critical that all Mississippi hospitals provide the requested data to ensure accurate workforce forecasting. All data are reported in aggregate form and while some data is grouped by State Health Department districts, no agency is identified by name or specific location.
