Nursing professional shortage
Summary: Some of the Minnesota school districts are suffering from nursing professional shortage. The recent report indicated that Minnesota does not meet the federal guidelines, which “recommend one nurse for every 750 healthy students.� This report worries not only the parents of the children but also school nursing professionals.
Challenge: The reporter needs to have good numbers of nursing interviewee from school and accurate statistical student nurse ratio.
Comparison: Both of articles showed good example of school nursing shortage. However, the way to approach them is a little different. I think the article from the Star tribune is well focused but provided too many interviews. That makes the reader confused. However, the other one provided detailed information well.
Opinion: The reporter pointed out well about the school nursing shortage crisis in Minnesota. It was not informative to the readers because nursing shortage is well-known matter in US. Also, the reporter used same information repeatedly.
