The report "Tested Solutions for Eliminating Canada's Registered Nursing Shortage" (Tomblin Murphy et al. 2009) projects a nursing shortage in Canada and offers strategies for eliminating that shortage. Using a population needs-based approach, the report estimates that in the year 2007, the shortage of nurses was 11,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) registered nurses. By 2022, the shortage will grow to almost 60,000 FTE RNs. Strategies proposed by the authors to address the RN shortage include increasing nurses' productivity, reducing annual absenteeism, increasing enrolment and reducing attrition in entry-to-practice education programs, improving the retention of practising RNs and reducing international in-migration of nurses.
《消除加拿大注册护士短缺的测试解决方案》报告（汤布林·墨菲等人，2009年）预测了加拿大的护士短缺情况，并提出了消除短缺的策略。该报告采用基于人口需求的方法，估计在2007年，护士短缺为11000名全职等效注册护士。到2022年，短缺将增至近60000名全职等效注册护士。作者提出的解决注册护士短缺的策略包括提高护士生产力、减少年度缺勤率、增加入学人数并减少执业前教育项目中的人员流失、提高在职注册护士的留用率以及减少护士的国际移民。
