The chapter explores the escalating demand for nurses in the US healthcare system, citing concerns over a projected nursing shortage and dissatisfaction with nurse-to-patient ratios. Despite improvements in nurse retention and mental health, challenges persist in staffing hospitals adequately. Issues such as workplace violence, nurse shortages, and the importance of the immigrant community in nursing care are discussed, along with the need for policy changes to address workforce gaps.
