Embracing diversity.
It is imperative that nursing professionals are proactive, as well as creative, when addressing overall nursing workforce planning and the nursing shortage. The profession must take a comprehensive look at what is currently available to manage an increasingly complex health care system that manages care for more acutely ill and chronically ill/impaired patients. Being proactive, open-minded, and flexible may help nurses make strides in increased staffing of all of our health care agencies. Embracing a more diverse workforce is one powerful mechanism toward that goal.
