Nursing Shortage

It is being predicted that, with the aging of baby boomers approaching their retirement age, there is going to be a huge shortage of nurses in Canada. During my first semester, in the development of self course, I came across an article that clearly indicates that there are going to be a huge shortage of nurses in the health care industry.
I think this is the perfect time for individuals to join the nursing profession, which allows opportunity for helping people in need. But it is also true that there are not enough seats available for students to get enrolled in nursing schools. The number of students applying to nursing school far outnumbers the spaces available.
