Addressing the shortage of nurses and to cope up the strategies in Oman.
Nurses are an important element of healthcare and make up the majority of the health profession. A number of causes have led to the shortage of qualified personnel. An ageing nursing workforce is nearing retirement. There is a scarcity of qualified nurse educators and teachers. Nursing shortages result in errors, increased morbidity, and mortality. Nurses endure burnout and unhappiness in hospitals with high patient-to-nurse ratios, and patients experience greater mortality and failure-to-rescue rates than in institutions with lower patient-to-nurse ratios.
