that's ignoring shortages, but that's another story to unpack

Sadly that seems to be the trend these days. Healthcare is still trying to recover from staffing losses during the pandemic.

It is a problem that they are also throwing money at, which is not even really solving anything. A good friend of mine is a travel nurse, who gets paid quite a bit more than the other nurses she works with for her willingness to relocate to work a temporary contract. Ideally, her hospital would just keep her contract up until they reach the staffing they need, after which she would go elsewhere, but they can't keep people on staff and have to keep upping their ratio of travelers to compensate.
