Florida Nursing Shortage Improvement in the Face of Healthcare Demand
Nursing Shortage in Florida Shows Improvement
The latest report from the Florida Hospital Association highlights a significant decrease in the nursing shortage in Florida. As of now, hospitals need more than 16,000 nurses, a marked improvement from two years ago when the state faced a staggering demand for 58,000 nurses.
Impact of Growing Healthcare Demand
This transformation is attributed to various factors, including an increase in nursing graduates and efforts to retain existing staff. Despite the improvement, the healthcare demand is expected to continue rising, necessitating ongoing strategies to further close the gap.
- Boost in nursing programs
