America has a major nursing workforce shortage. We need hundreds of thousands more. Is it any surprise the Trump team has decided to make it harder for aspiring nurses to afford nursing school? Yet another “policy” that will harm our future. American Nurses Association AFT

The Trump admin saying nurses aren't professionals is frankly insulting. Nurses and teachers are the backbone of our community. We need to restore the professional classification to nursing.

Does Donald Trump hate nurses? Sure feels like it since he made sure nursing is no longer categorized as a “professional degree.” That makes it so nurses have LESS access to federal student aid. I'm voting to OVERTURN this asinine policy.

Instead of providing better working environment for our nurses so as to attract more nurses to Nigeria, we're trying to prevent them from leaving the country! Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN) has misplaced priority syndrome!

National Nursing Week is a chance for us all to thank our incredible nurses for the compassionate care and support they provide every day. Since 2018, we’ve helped an historic 100,000 nurses join our province’s workforce. Thirty thousand more are currently studying at Ontario schools, many of them supported by our Learn and Stay Grant, which covers tuition for nurses who stay and work in underserved parts of the province. Happy National Nursing Week!

We have a shortage of qualified nursing home staff in every state in America, and that must change now. I’ve reached out to all 50 governors with an opportunity to tackle this issue and letting them know that CMS is investing over $75 million to train and keep the nurses we need to care for residents.

Investigation uncovers fake nursing diplomas and transcripts scandal in America “Over 7,600 diplomas were distributed for nursing jobs across the United States. Operation Nightingale was the operation to uncover the scheme that created fake diplomas and transcripts for aspiring nurses, many from India In 2023, 30 defendants were charged and convicted in this scam, and 12 more have just been charged for selling these fraudulent nursing diplomas and transcripts. No word on how many of these fake nurses are currently working in the US, but authorities have flagged individuals and databases for review by state nursing boards all over the country. Many of these reviews are ongoing, while patients are still being treated ostensibly by potentially unqualified nurses. It looks like cases are still being reviewed in states like Connecticut, Delaware, Washington, Texas, and California.”

Globalization has FAILED. Secretary Lutnick at the World Economic Forum: “The Trump Administration and I are here to make a very clear point—globalization has failed the West and the United States of America. It’s a failed policy… and it has left America behind.” America is done exporting jobs and offshoring its future. We will no longer give in to globalization.

President Trump has given Iran every opportunity to make peace - but given the nature of this regime, it's hard to imagine it will make any of the concessions we need to conclude the war on terms that secure our interests.

When healthcare feels overwhelming, look for one concrete thing you can do. Right now, the Department of Education has opened a public comment period on a proposed rule that would remove nursing from the “professional degree” classification. That sounds technical. It isn’t. If this change goes through, nurses and advanced practice providers could lose access to certain federal loan programs that make advanced training financially possible. That affects who can afford to become a nurse practitioner. It affects who stays in the workforce. It affects access to care. As a reconstructive microsurgeon, I cannot care for the volume of women I serve without the nurses and nurse practitioners on my team. They are not assistants. They are licensed, credentialed professionals practicing at the highest level of their training. They are the backbone of American healthcare. If you care about access to safe, high quality care, this matters. The public comment period is open and closes on March 2nd. Here is how to leave a comment. It takes five minutes: 1. Go to 2. Type into search “reimagining and improving student education” 3. Click “Submit a Formal Comment” 4. Write a short statement. It can be simple. For example: “I support recognizing nursing as a professional degree. Limiting access to federal loan programs will worsen workforce shortages and reduce access to care.” 5. Enter your information and click submit You do not need to be a doctor or a nurse to comment. You just need to care. Small actions matter. Words matter. Please take a few minutes to support recognizing nursing for what it is: a profession.
