Excelsior, MN (PRWEB) April 10, 2014 -- allnurses.com, the largest online community and peer-to peer networking site for nurses and nursing students, announced it has surpassed 800,000 registered members. For nearly 20 years, allnurses.com has been the collective voice of the nursing community, supporting the profession by providing a place where nurses can network, share, and learn from each other.
“From day one, we knew that nurses needed a place to go to discuss the ups and downs of their jobs, and be able to share real-life experiences, frustrations, and achievements,” said Brian Short, Founder and CEO of allnurses.com. “The consistent growth of the allnurses.com network tells us we built the right resource and speaks to the important role it plays in the everyday lives of nurses and nursing students across the country, as well as around the world.”
Ninety-nine percent of the content on allnurses.com is user generated, and the site averages approximately 300 new users and topics per day. Topics range from personal stories to professional advice and questions. While anyone visiting the site can browse and search conversation threads, registration offers users additional functionality such as the ability to create favorite forums and subscribe to posts to receive automatic updates. There is also a private forum for registered nurse educators. Joining allnurses.com is free.
The allnurses.com network includes additional resources such as the Nurse Zine e-newsletter, and Facebook pages for allnurses.com and Nurses Rock. These allow followers to engage in conversation about serious nursing topics as well as more fun, lighthearted subjects. allnurses recently released a mobile redesign that enhances the overall mobile experience for its users and an app for Android and iOS devices allowing nurses to stay connected and find immediate answers and information they need while on-the-go.
