What to Know When Pursuing Nursing Jobs in Missouri

Want to find out more about whom you’ll be caring for? While Missouri has historically lacked the cultural diversity seen in other parts of the U.S., recent demographics suggest a significant increase in the growth of previously underrepresented nationalities and ethnic groups.

Missouri’s cultural index — a measurement of the diversity of a population — increased to 61.1% from 54.9%. In terms of today’s Missouri residents, approximately 77.9% are White, 11.7% are Black, 5.3% are Hispanic or Latino, 2.3% are Asian, 0.6% are American Indian, and 2.7% identify with two or more races.

The median age of state residents is 39.3, which is on par with the national median. Fifteen percent of the population lives with a disability, and 7.5% of residents don’t have health insurance, so you’ll want to be sure you brush up on your cultural competence skills before practicing in Missouri.

Whether you’re looking to work in an urban or rural area, there are plenty of available nursing jobs to choose from. Start your search by exploring positions by role:
