Surging Demand for Healthcare Professionals in Canada
Canada is facing a national healthcare crisis, intensified by an aging population and ongoing staff shortages.

Statistics show Canada urgently needs more healthcare workers:

- Registered nurse vacancies hit 28,335 by early 2023, the largest shortage in any profession en.wikipedia.org.
- 259,695 internationally educated health professionals (IEHPs) resided in Canada in 2021, nearly 13% of the country’s health workforce www150.statcan.gc.ca+1canada.ca+1.
The demand is especially acute in provinces like Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec environics.ca+15www150.statcan.gc.ca+15iedm.org+15. At the same time, domestic burn-out is soaring—with nearly 94% of nurses exhibiting symptoms and half considering leaving their roles healthcarecan.ca+15en.wikipedia.org+15ca.indeed.com+15.
