Joy in Work: Nicety or Necessity

The predicted shortage of the healthcare workforce has reached a crisis state. National and provincial agencies are advocating for greater resources and new strategies to close the gap required to deliver healthcare services to Canadians. However, most of these recommendations are aimed at increased funding to augment recruitment and clear healthcare need backlogs.
