March 02, 2005: Canadians quench Enloe nurse drought:"To make up for America's nursing shortage, Canadian nurses have migrated to Enloe Medical Center. Of the 400 nurses at Enloe, 30 are from Canada. There are many reasons for hiring foreign nurses, especially those from Canada, said Charlene Davis, director of recruitment at Enloe. "Of course, we are in the middle of an extreme nurse shortage, but many nurses are not able to find steady work in Canada," Davis said. "The United States isn't graduating enough nurses to keep up with those that retire."
