The Nursing Crisis in Georgia
The shortage of nurses is severe and only getting worse. According to the Health Resources and Service Administration (HRSA), by 2033 there will be a shortage of 180,000 nurses nationwide and Georgia will have one of the worst shortfalls.
This unsustainable trend requires a bold and visionary response. Phoebe has become a nationwide leader in healthcare workforce development, and the Phoebe Living & Learning Community is the centerpiece of Phoebe’s efforts to work with regional educational partners to vastly expand the pipeline of nurses and other healthcare professionals in southwest Georgia.
