Challenges in a Post COVID World
The national nursing shortage makes recruiting and retaining quality nursing staff extremely competitive. While facilities may have traditionally required 3-5 years of emergency department (ED) experience before training a nurse for triage, the lack of resources has forced some organizations into reducing the requirement to one year or less. As this requirement decreases, it is increasingly critical to have a well-defined onboarding path for nurses new to triage.
