People across the country are having to wait up to six months to receive their licenses after going through nursing school.
Throughout the last two years, we've seen the demand for health care workers grow exponentially, but some aren't able to start working because of systematic licensing issues. There are nearly 3 million registered nurses in this country but many of them, like Christopher Battelli, did not get there easily.
He’s talking about the dozens and dozens of phone calls he had to make to get his license this month. He's been calling since November of last year, knowing he'd need his license for a future job. He knows just how prominent the nursing shortage is nationwide, which made these delays that much more shocking to him. As Jack Needleman, with the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health explains, this isn’t an issue unique to one state. Nurses in states like Ohio, Maryland, and Minnesota are just some examples of others experiencing delays up to six months to get their licenses.
