P- Healthcare workers- RN/RPN/PSW
I- regulating and/or redefining scopes of practice
C- look to like global health systems
O- decrease shortages with increased scopes

Research Question: How could redefining healthcare providers scopes of practice help fill in the gaps in staffing across the healthcare system?

Inspiration: Last week’s perioperative webinar sparked a brainstorm for me on what a reassessed skill mix within the setting I work in would look like. Staffing quotas could be met by utilizing the RPNs within their scopes. This lead to considering healthcare as a whole and finding creative solutions while lifting up each other.
