New Democrats also pledge to hire 30,000 nurses, expedite credential recognition for 15,000 internationally trained nurses and create new jobs for late-career and recently retired nurses who can mentor and supervise.The party says the goal is to shorten wait times for patients and help health-care workers avoid burnout.
