A health system in Western New York state is trying to fill hundreds of immediate nursing openings, according to ABC-affiliate TV station WKBW.
As of May 7, Buffalo, N.Y.-based Catholic Health had more than 200 nursing jobs posted on its website. The job openings are primarily for patient care support workers, registered nurses and licensed practical nurses.
Catholic Health isn't the only Western New York entity looking to fill positions, including UBMD, a Buffalo-based physicians group. A representative from the group told WKBW that there are two internal medicine openings and one family medicine opening.
