Evening Edition: Nursing Shortage Reaching Crisis Levels

Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description

A large population of America is aging and there are not enough healthcare workers to take care of them. The worsening nurse shortage can be attributed to not only an aging workforce but overall burnout and an insufficient number of new nurses. More and more hospitals and organizations have put a focus on training up the next wave of healthcare workers, and are now meeting potential employees where they are - in high school classrooms.

FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Barb Clapp, CEO of Dwyer Workforce Development, a nonprofit that helps people get training in healthcare, who says by 2030 the shortage of nurses will dramatically effect all levels of healthcare.
