The Registered Nurses’ Union Newfoundland & Labrador is calling on the provincial government and Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services to urgently address the concerning employment challenges faced by soon-to-be graduating nurses.
One student shared that an NLHS manager in central Newfoundland stated that he prefers hiring private agency nurses because they are easier to make happy. Even more concerning, says the union, he admitted to not posting available positions at all, as it is simpler for him to bring in agency nurses. The union says none of the students have been offered the rural incentives that the government has widely promoted to attract nurses to remote and underserved areas.
