Patients' care in hospitals is complex and needs the efforts of many different medical experts.

The
primary source of tension in hospitals is the shortage of necessary staff, especially B. nurses. Due to a
shortage of available nurses, those who are already caring for patients have taken on extra
responsibility.

Treatment mistakes. The nurses are the last line of defense against patients taking the wrong
medication. Nurses will stray off course and make mistakes when they are under stress and are
expected to take on too much responsibilities at work (Booth, 2002). Additional shift work and stressful
employment contributed to medication errors in patient care, according to a report from our
organization.

The final result for the patient. Hospital mortality and duration of stay are just two of the negative
outcomes that have been linked to insufficient staffing (Booth, 2002). Long hospital stays and high
patient fatality rates are directly attributable to our organization's nursing deficit.

An overview of the effects of the nurse shortage and how other institutions are addressing the problem

High mortality rates, nurse burnout, and work discontent that contribute to high turnover are all tied to
the nursing shortage. Several groups have begun implementing initiatives to address and manage this
problem on a national scale. They've taken measures like hiring extra nurses to make sure nobody's
overburdened (Park & Yu, 2019).

The good and bad effects on my organization of national healthcare issues/stressors, and the strategies
I've employed to deal with them, as detailed in the research materials.

Among the measures taken are enhancements to the working conditions and an increase in the number
of available nurses within the organization. Access to quality care is ensured by a competent and caring
staff (Park & Yu, 2019). The use of this method has resulted in increased production, which is a beneficial
outcome. For instance, the reduction in the average time it takes to service a patient has drawn a large
number of patients to the business, resulting in increased output. This has had a negative effect on the
business as a whole due to the huge salary bills that have accumulated as a result. The increased cost of
doing business is at least partly attributable to the higher salaries that have been offered throughout the
company.
