Capable nursing students shut out amid workforce shortage

Original: Voices: I’ve seen capable nursing students be shut out. Our workforce can’t afford that.

A commentary in The Salt Lake Tribune argues that qualified nursing students are being excluded from training programs even as Utah and the wider United States face a serious nursing shortage. The author, drawing on personal experience in nursing education, says the profession cannot afford to turn away capable candidates and urges changes to how students are admitted and supported.

Why now: Ongoing nursing shortages and limited capacity in nursing schools have made barriers to training a pressing public concern.
