How Healthcare Leaders Can Tackle Nursing Staffing Shortages
The United States now faces a deficit of 200,000 to 450,000 registered nurses available for direct patient care by 2025. This represents a 10 to 20% gap that places greater demand on nurses over the next two years.?
The nurse staffing shortage is creating the next inevitable epidemic – an insufficient number of nurses to meet the healthcare needs of patients in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and other healthcare settings. Nursing staffing shortages can negatively affect patient care, including longer wait times and increased risk of medical errors. They can also place a more significant burden on nurses as the nature of work is stress-inducing and often emotionally challenging, leading to burnout and high turnover rates.??
