> If you pay enough, people will stay.

This is absolutely not true. Study after study have proven that there is a limit to the number of hours someone is willing to work.

The real solution is to increase the NUMBER of nurses. This means removing the artificial barriers to entry.

Their issue is BURNOUT and this is caused by staffing shortages and partly this is caused by artificial barriers to entry.

Train more nurses, alleviate the shortages.

If you pay enough you can attract enough nurses that they aren't overworked and thus aren't prone to leaving.
