On the occasion of International Nurses Day, healthcare experts have
pointed out that merely increasing the number of nursing colleges won’t be
enough to address the issue of nurses’ attrition gap. While the COVID-19
pandemic has highlighted the significance of nurses in the healthcare
system, there has been a persistent shortage of nurses in many countries.
Experts suggest that improving the working conditions of nurses, providing
better pay and benefits, and investing in their professional development
are crucial steps to address this issue.
