Registered nurses in British Columbia : a report on the current supply situation Kazanjian, Arminée 1947-; Wong, Gordon

Abstract

Most of what has been said in the recent past regarding "shortages" of nurse manpower in British Columbia has not been accompanied by empirical data to substantiate the position taken by the commentator. In order to fill this research gap, the Health Manpower Research Unit at The University of British Columbia proceeded to undertake an in-depth research study of nurse manpower issues. The study was exploratory in nature; the major thrust of the research was to provide descriptive information regarding the current supply of registered nurses and to forecast future supply given a number of different scenarios.
