According to a GOA report a few years back, we numerically had enough Nurses. Well then why the shortage. Two reasons...Nurses did not want to work in crap environments where their license (and patients lives) were at risk. Pay scale flattens after 10 years (and those dinky 2% raises you got did not keep up with inflation and a brand new inexperienced Nurse gets more than you). They advertise but they don't hire. Then the Health Care Industry goes to Congress (since they can't off shore our services yet) and gets them to expand the HB1 visa so they can out source our job ON OUR SOIL!. It drops our wages and does not improve health care.
