Nurse.org provided continuing coverage of Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and Department of Labor & Industry Secretary Nancy A. Walker visiting Temple Women & Families on March 6th to highlight investments included in the Governor’s 2025-26 budget proposal aimed at tackling Pennsylvania’s nursing shortage and strengthening the Commonwealth’s health care workforce. The governor’s budget proposal includes a first-time state-level investment of $5 million to create the Nurse Shortage Assistance Program, which will provide funding to health systems like Temple that partner with nursing schools to cover tuition costs for students who commit to a three-year work placement at sponsoring Pennsylvania hospitals after graduation.
