Canada has been looking outside its borders to fill a critical nurse shortage, but recruitment efforts are leaving Ghana’s hospitals short-staffed. Now Ghana’s nurse association says Canada should foot the bill for their training.
Yes, that’s a fair point. But even with an investment in better wages, training and more education a critical shortage will take at least a couple years to be mitigated, and a couple years doesn’t seem to be a viable option right now.
That’s fair.
Then the provinces should have IMMEDIATELY increased enrollment to nursing AND increased wages to help keep that current staff on.
None of the problems created by provincial gov’ts should be solved by stealing nurses from other nations.
