Do you have anything to back that up?


We have reached the point now, where if the
hospitals all re-opened their nursing schools, there would not be
enough teachers to staff them.

Unless pay is raised and the bar lowered for teaching.

Import nurses from Canada.

It's not a secret, RC. Rather common knowledge, actually, but I'm sure some
school figures could be located, if it really matters.

I seriously doubt that the number of people going into nursing are dropping
rapidly or dropping at all. I'd like to see the figures. Here's some from
NY:

http://www.op.nysed.gov/nursecounts.htm

From 2001 -2005: a 35% increase in RN license issued, a 41% increase in LPN
licenses issued and a 21% drop in nurse practitioners.

Overall, a net increase in the number of nursing licenses issued.

As I said, facts+logic wins every time.

It does only if you eliminate the statistics that defeat your argument,
specifically the attrition of burned-out nurses and those who leave to raise
a family or take other work. Factor in that and you'll have a different
picture. Fact: much is done to attract nurses to jobs (sign-on bonuses,
desirable shift choices, etc.) while almost nothing is done to retain
experienced nurses.
