Finding employees to fill openings in Reno County is difficult, but in some professions this task is daunting. The medical field is in need of some specialty doctors and technicians, but nurses are their top priority. Hutchinson is not alone in this matter. It is a global issue. The World Health Organization calculated that about 27 million people work in nursing or midwifery worldwide, representing half of the world’s global health workforce. There is a global shortage of nurses who, the WHO said, represents more than 50% of the current shortage in health workers.
