Workforce Data

Below you will find resources that provide useful data about current workforce supply, projected workforce demand, demographics, earnings, educational background, and career advancement for various health and human services occupations.

The Rhode Island Health Workforce Data Dashboard was created by the EOHHS Data Ecosystem in 2024. The Dashboard enables healthcare providers, educators, policymakers, and others to review and analyze data that provides a detailed understanding of the State’s licensed health professional workforce.  The following data elements can be searched and filtered via the Dashboard from 2010 through the present:

  • Number of licensees
  • Number and percentage of licensees employed in a healthcare setting in Rhode Island
  • Number and percentage of licensees employed in any setting in Rhode Island
  • Race & ethnicity
  • Gender
  • Average age
  • Median annual earnings
  • Setting (ie, type of employer)
  • Education and training providers
  • Career progressions (CNA, LPN, and RN)
