Critical care workforce in crisis: A path forward

Healthcare professionals are carers at their core. They are highly educated, trained, and skilled professionals that provide a breadth of care to the sickest in our communities. This is most evident in critical care, where each patient is cared for by one nurse and a team of physicians, physiotherapists, and other allied health professionals who closely monitor patients and conduct invasive procedures to maintain life. Without a healthy and functioning clinical workforce, health care cannot be delivered, and our communities and the people within  suffer.
