The Nursing Shortage: A Crisis in America Healthcare 1 of 8

This documentary takes a very honest, much needed look at the state of nursing in America. By interviewing doctors, hospital administrators, union representatives, members of the public and nurses themselves we get a complete picture of this severe and growing problem.

Produced and hosted by Paula Packwood MHA, RN, a health care professional with over 35 years of experience in the field. She has presented this video to politicians and policy makers in Sacramento and Washington DC.

Directed and edited by Greg Wyatt.

Originally aired on the now defunct Adelphia Channel in the fall of 2003.
