      The article explores issues surrounding the severe nursing shortage in the U.S. An estimated 8.5% of the nursing positions in the U.S. are unfilled and some expect that number to triple by 2020 as 80 million baby boomers retire and expand the ranks of those needing care. Hospital administrators and nurses' advocates have declared a staffing crisis as the nursing shortage hits its 10th year in 2007, the longest stretch in 50 years.
