The report “Tested Solutions for Eliminating Canada’s Registered Nursing Shortage”
(Tomblin Murphy et al. 2009) projects a nursing shortage in Canada and offers strategies for eliminating that shortage. Using a population needs–based approach, the
report estimates that in the year 2007, the shortage of nurses was 11,000 full-time
equivalent (FTE) registered nurses. By 2022, the shortage will grow to almost 60,000
FTE RNs. Strategies proposed by the authors to address the RN shortage include
increasing nurses’ productivity, reducing annual absenteeism, increasing enrolment
and reducing attrition in entry-to-practice education programs, improving the retention of practising RNs and reducing international in-migration of nurses.
