Amidst the nursing shortage, healthcare programs and universities are trying to advertise nursing as a career to offset the current nursing shortage but the problem is the not the number of applicants to nursing schools but from the nursing school not being able to accept all applicants due to a lack of professors.
Another problem with the nursing shortage is not that there is not enough applicants but it is also because hospitals and other healthcare facilities are demanding nurses that have experience.
Companies that cater to hospitals in providing temporary nurses like Aya healthcare have a large source of nurses that have at least 1 year of experience but some hospitals would like nurses with more experience which makes it difficult to find.
