Rhode Island Therapy, Nursing & Health Care Schools

Jobs in the Ocean State's health care and social service industry are expected to grow two times faster than in any other industry in the state, according to the Rhode Island Department of Labor and Training. An impending nursing shortage has helped increase statewide recruitment efforts. Almost 90 percent of the open jobs for registered nurses offer benefits such as health care, paid sick leave and vacation, and 81 percent offer various forms of tuition reimbursement.

Occupational Therapists must hold at least a master's degree and pass a certification examination to obtain a license in Rhode Island. Nurses must graduate from a state-approved nursing program earning a certificate, associate or bachelor's degree. Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses must also pass a national nursing exam to obtain a Rhode Island nursing license, which must be renewed every two years. In Rhode Island, the nursing and health care education programs can help you discover your place in this promising social service sector.
