I like to use the word "alleged" because the shortage could be solved by
encouraging people to enter (and to stay in) the market by offering
increased pay, better benefits, and better working conditions.
Employers always perceive a shortage when they want to pay wages below the
market's price point. Thus, we have a "shortage" of scientists, engineers,
and computer programmers at third world wages, etc.
Maybe I'm wrong. Perhaps they really are offering $50,000/year with good
benefits and good working conditions, but I'm highly skeptical. My fiance
is hoping to become a nurse, so it would be good if that were the case.
