nursing shortage
Type: Concept
As of November 2026, nursing shortage has been mentioned in one podcast episode on Table Read Tuesdays (Sep 2025).
A nursing shortage occurs when the demand for nursing professionals, such as registered nurses (RNs), exceeds the supply locally—within a healthcare facility—nationally or globally. It can be measured, for instance, when the nurse-to-patient ratio, the nurse-to-population ratio, the number of job openings necessitates a higher number of nurses than currently available, or the current number of nurses is above a certain age where retirement becomes an option and plays a factor in staffing making
