Healing the Wounds: Nursing’s Road to Recovery

With the majority of nurses getting uncomfortably close to retirement, it is urgent that a new generation enter the ranks of the profession. This program looks at how nurses and other members of the healthcare industry are trying to attract more young women and men to the field, as well as at initiatives to restore respect for nursing as a career choice. Turning the nursing profession around will take educational and financial incentives, a willingness to incorporate new ideas, and time—but time is the one thing that is in very short supply.
