Australia's nursing crisis at a glance
A combination of rapidly aging population, more chronic disease, medical advancement and flexible working conditions are rapidly increasing demands for more nurses. The health system cannot keep up.
There are shortages already today of 20,000 nurse. A third of the workforce is aged 50+, nursing enrolments are declining, and leave-taking is on the increase. Retention is a top issue globally. By 2030, there will be a global shortage of 5m nurses (World Health Organization).
The Royal Commission into aged-care showed that less than 4% of facilities are compliant with minimum care minutes. Costs are skyrocketing, inequalities are growing between regional and metro, and nursing stress levels are rising.
