Some experts have argued that the cause of the nurse shortage is not the amount of available nurses, but the inadequate wages and highly undesirable working conditions that have deterred would-be nurses from training in the nursing field. These individuals would rather invest in a different career then work as a nurse. Inadequate wages will undoubtedly produce an inadequate number of staff.
Another potential reason for the nurse shortage is the lack of capacity for nurse training programs. “A major factor in ensuring an adequate supply of new nurses is the limited capacity of current educational programs. In 2001, 5,000 qualified applicants were rejected from baccalaureate programs because there were too few slots for them. 37 Nurse training programs face the same recruitment problem for faculty as hospitals do for staff nurses: unattractively low salaries (Lovell Vicky, PHD, 2005).” Yet another, but not nearly as publicized reason for the nurse shortage may be the gender issues.

In 1990, average annual income was $31,504 for California residents working in nursing positions; by 2002 it was $59,572, and by 2006 it had risen to $73,542. Between 2004 and 2006 there was substantial growth in the incomes of nurses; the share earning more than $80,000 rose from 17.7% in 2004 to 34% in 2006. The contribution of nursing income to total household income grew from 58.7% in 1990 to 65.5% in 2004, and higher still to 75% by 2006.
