👉Health Minister Sylvia Jones announced Thursday that the change aimed at stabilizing the health system is effective immediately, and could potentially help the 5,970 active international applicants currently living in Ontario. Ontario's nursing college can now start allowing internationally educated nurses to practice while they work toward full registration, which the government hopes will mean thousands more nurses in the health system. The move comes as hospitals across the province have been forced to close emergency rooms for hours or days at a time in recent months due to nursing staff shortages. Emergency rooms have also reported large patient volumes and long wait times, delaying and reducing ambulance availability. College will also have more flexibility in allowing retired or non-practicing nurses to return to the field.✅ . . #Ontario #Ontariogovernment #nursingjobcanada #canadanurse #nurseincanada #canadanursingjob #canadawantsnurses #OntarioNews #Canadanews #dailynewscanada #candadianmallu #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
