  1. Enrollment up at Atlanta nursing schools


    Efforts to recruit more young people to the nursing profession appear to be working in the Atlanta area, where local nursing schools report higher-than-usual enrollments for the fall semester.

    I would like to say that this is good news but until the issues that have made bedside nursing so unpalatable for existing nurses are resolved, then it does no good to bring in fresh meat! In fact, it will only compound the problems.
