Need Sources for Nursing Shoratage Paper

B Matt,

Check out government studies on government websites. In researching the nursing profession I came across several gov. studies that explained the causes and possible solutions. Sorry I don't remember the specific sites, but I did locate them with search engines.

Good Luck,

I would suggest checking to the johnson & johnson website. The page has articles relating to your topic and scholarship opportunies as well. Or even the nursing magazine websites like the following: http://www.rnweb.com

http://www.nursingspectrum.com

http://www.nursingcenter.com

I hope this helps with your research. Good luck and happy typing. :cool:

I did a similar type paper in school and I tapped the resources at the hospitals.....I called and did phone interviews with the nursing recruiters at the two local hospitals and also did an interview with the director of our schools program.........Got an A and learned some interesting stuff as well........I also looked in nursing magazines that the campus kept for articles on it.......

This is an excellent report focusing on the contributing factors of the nursing shortage. Although it is an Australian report, from cruising this board it seems that many, if not all, of the factors apply in the USA as well.

This report was commisioned by the New South Wales Nurses Association (our union here in this state) to present to the Industrial Commision who are currently hearing our case for a 15% wage claim. It was an independent study carried out by the University of Sydney.

As of RN of 20 years experience I agreed with every point made in this report. Well worth reading!

Thank you so much aus nurse. great report... the issues in Austrialia are almost identical to those in the United States. I found it to be a very informative read!
