DOUGLAS, Ariz. — According to the Health Resources and Services Administration, by 2036 the US will experience a nursing shortage of more than 437,000.
In 2022, there were over 12,000 healthcare positions in Cochise County. By 2032, that number is expected to increase by 20%. That community she's talking about includes students, especially those actively participating in groups like HOSA, geared toward future health professionals. "That's where we struggle though, although that seems like a lot and it seems amazing, remember we have 123 kids. It's very difficult to get them all opportunities in the communities."
