This journal in nursing shows how nursing shortage relates to nurse’s job satisfaction in the workplace, and stress and burnout levels. Three step strategies were used in this research in order to collect data from previously published results on the nursing shortage. The research results used were of studies conducted between 1990 and 2010. Seven descriptive and descriptive correlation studies published in English were used in the form of a narrative summary. These studies revealed that there is a very big relationship between nursing shortage and job dissatisfaction in the entire nursing practice. Nurses shortage is related not only to job dissatisfaction but also to stress and work burnout. This is because many nursing care institutions usually strain the available nurses to do a very wide job. Some nurses work for extra hours in situations where nurses are very few. It is reported as a worldwide concern of nurses’ shortage. This translates in the workplace where the nurses are usually overworked and the working conditions are very poor. This has also led to a big number of oncology RNs leaving the specialty. The working conditions are the number one cause for the big numbers of nurses who are leaving the profession. This worsens the situation because less people join the nursing practice and the numbers of people in need of nursing care are higher as compared to the number of nurses available in practice. This has a very big effect in the overall nursing practice. This means that the organization must come up with new ways of recruiting new nurses and retaining the ones who are already in practice.

This journal contains information on the personality traits of different nurses who join the nursing practice. Through determining the nurses’ personalities; one can develop strategies that can be used to retain the nurses in the practice. The shortage rates of nurses require that the already existing nurses in practice be retained and a plan to recruit others devised. This information on the personality of nurses helps in understanding why people join the nursing profession. The design used to collect this information was mixed sequential explanatory that consisted of semi-structured interviews and validated personality inventories measuring the temperament and character traits of nurses. This study involved practicing nurses and nursing students in Queensland Australia in 2010. The data collected in this study was qualitative, and the personality traits of the practicing nurses were determined. Many nurses were found out to have joined the profession because of their caring nature, and others said that it was their vocation in life.
The principal trait that was found out in the qualitative and quantitative research is the caring nature of the individual nurses. This enables organizations to determine how they can retain the nurses in the profession and strategies that can be used to woo people to join the profession based on their personality traits. This also enables the government to devise strategies that can be used to ensure job satisfaction in the profession. This is aimed at tackling the issue of nurses’ shortage in the profession globally.

The shortage of academically qualified institutions has highly contributed to the shortage of nurses across the globe. This is a systematic review of what should be done to address the nurses’ shortage globally. The method used in this study was metasynthesis to analyze what should be done to address the problem in different parts of the world. This research involved information on the different organizations that are concerned with the nursing profession. The research found out that the shortage in the numbers of the nurses in the world is a confluence of factors that include global migration of nurses, academic programs that do not change despite the changes in the nursing issues that are emerging, lack of motivation in the workplace and in the general profession, and overall reduction in people who are full time worker in the profession. This research suggests that there is a need to improve the studying faculties in order to increase both the numbers of training nurses but also increases the quality of training for nurses. This should be a major step in solving the problem of nurses’ shortage in the faculty. The nursing education system should be designed in such a way that it meets the global healthcare standards. The expansion of the nursing education models will play a big role in solving the nursing shortage problem. The provision of quality nursing education leads to the provision of quality services to clients. Through this, the nurses will be able to meet the needs of clients in the field. This leads to the expansion of global nursing capacity.
