Nebraska's Nursing Shortage:

November 7, 2000: Nebraksa: Plagued by shortages, nurses face new challenges:"Nurses in Nebraska face almost insurmountable problems, several local nurses said. A shortage of nurses, an increase in the acuity of patient illness, technological advances and 12-hour shifts linked to medical mistakes contribute to a stressful environment. "Research shows an increase in medical errors and omissions of medicine the longer (nurses) work the shift," said Roberta Kroeger, an assistant professor at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Nursing and president of the Nebraska Nurses Association."

Critical Issues In Healthcare:"Today, Nebraska is faced with many challenging issues related to health and health care. Traditional programs and their funding sources are being cut back or eliminated, while the needs of people seem greater than ever. The way that health care is financed and delivered is changing rapidly, and we will have to work together in new ways to assure that scarce resources are used as effectively as possible and that the most important needs of our citizens are being met. This requires change--in how we think about problems, how we exchange ideas, and how we work together to create and implement new solutions. It is important to assist communities in their understanding of how to forge new partnerships and how to manage the changes that lie ahead for Nebraska.
