So what was the point of the story yes there still is a nursing shortage, yes each year qualified applicants are turned away, yes nurses do not want to teach beacause they can make more elsehwhere, so what is going to be done about it?

Exactly! They reported that 1 in 7 nurses quit, but they didn't talk about why.

And yes, the did say the nursing shortage will have a negative affect on patient care, but how many stupid lawsuits later will they finally figure out that nurses are being asked to do the impossible? Until administration actually takes responsibility for this, it will be nurses who will blamed.
