Nationally, the long-term care industry is facing historic staffing shortages, which are forecasted to increase,” wrote the delegation. “These shortages are particularly acute in rural areas. In Nebraska, 80% of counties’ RNs and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) per capita are lower than the national average, and nine counties do not have any practicing RNs available.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:37:48Z |
