Abstract

Although it is now known that PREPP is to be implemented, there is still much uncertainty as to how it will be funded. Will nurses receive funding for their continuing education needs from health trusts, be expected to self-fund or seek sponsorship from drug companies?

Hospitals' responses to nurse staffing shortages.

Hospitals have used a mix of short-term and long-term strategies to deal with nurse shortages, particularly efforts emphasizing nurse education, competitive compensation, and temporary staff. Interviews with health care leaders from Round Five of the Community Tracking Study indicate that these activities, in conjunction with other factors, have assisted in reducing shortages of hospital nurses. However, hospitals' actions have increased costs and raised concerns about their potential impact on patient care. Additionally, a large degree of doubt exists among hospitals about their ability to meet future nursing needs.
