There's a focus on the front line workers during this National Nursing Week. And that takes in about 8,000 registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and nurse practitioners in Nova Scotia. Dr. Gail Tomblin Murphy is the Chief Nursing Executive at Nova Scotia Health. And she was recently the co-author of a Royal Society of Canada policy briefing. She's been working on strategies to address the current and longstanding nursing shortage and exodus that's happening in Canada. And it's why she's advocating for a Pan-Canadian solution. She also address recent concerns raised about travel nursing, vacancies and the effect COVID absences are happening as they look towards recruiting and retaining more of these valuable front line health care workers.
