How Do Federal Policies Address Nursing Shortages?

To combat nursing shortages, the federal government has implemented several initiatives. The National Health Service Corps (NHSC) offers incentives for nurses to work in rural and underserved areas. Additionally, the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action, supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) and the AARP, aims to increase the number of nurses with baccalaureate degrees and promote leadership roles within the profession.
