University Hospitals is introducing the UH Future Nurse Academy to help close the gap as hundreds of thousands of nurses leave their jobs and inspire younger generations to enter the field.
A new study shows roughly 100,000 nurses quit the job during the pandemic.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics forecasts more than 275 thousand additional nurses will be needed over the next decade.
