This is definitely something I have viewed in my region as well. This is such a complex issue, that I believe requires several solutions. A statistic that really opened my eyes is that we have a waiting list of over 90,000 eligible nursing students in the US between 2021-2022 due to shortages of nursing faculty and clinical sites. Great job to Arizona College of Nursing taking an initiative to find solutions to improve enrollment to supply the workforce. Not only improve the supply, but improve the quality of education to ensure burnout does not occur within the first year as this article mentions. This is a big reason why I started a VR nursing simulation company, Tactile VR, to improve the efficiency and quality of nursing clinical opportunity for nursing students. #nursingshortage #nursing #healthcareshortage #hospital #burnout #workplace #nursingeducation #nursingschool

Power in numbers…..

There is a fundamental problem when an administration refuses to consider the voice of nurses. The president apparently thought his team would just replace the entire nursing faculty until the North Dakota Board of Nurses found the program to be out of compliance, because there is no nurse administrator. Maybe the solution would be to bring the nursing faculty into the conversation about the financial constraints. Ask the nurses how to solve the problem rather than try to cram them into a one size fits all administrative action. There are two take aways from my perspective. For nurses, your voice is powerful when you speak and act collectively. Leaders, bring nurses to the table. They are adept at finding solutions when there appear to be none.
