Ohio’s 2003-2004 Statewide Nursing Workforce Survey
The Ohio Board of Nursing completed an extensive survey of Ohio’s nurses in 2003 -
2004. This survey was undertaken in an effort to obtain accurate, up-to-date information
about the nursing workforce in Ohio. In August of 2003 a survey was mailed to each of
the 185,000 people holding an active nursing license in Ohio. Nearly 96,000 completed
surveys were returned by December, 2003. The high return rate (53%) is very good for
survey-type research and indicates a high level of professional commitment on the part of
Ohio’s nurses.
