We could’ve spent the last few years frantically training as many nurses as possible as quickly as possible [1], but: no.

.

[1] By, for example:

• Massively boosting funding to nursing schools to increase capacity.
• Waiving student fees, increasing student support and raising nurses’ pay in order to attract the students to fill those places.
• Streamlining nursing training with the goal of getting the students to a clinically useful level as quickly as possible.
• Paying whatever it takes to keep the existing corps of nurses in the profession while the reinforcements are being trained.
