LakeHouston-area hospitals, educators attempt to keep up with rising nursing shortage
DEMAND
The Texas Department of State Health Services projects the Gulf Coast region’s demand for full-time registered nurses will outpace the region’s supply over the next decade.

Projected unmet demand for registered nurses by 2032
Supply and demand of Gulf Coast registered nurses Projected demand Projected supply Percentage of demand unmet

Hospitals in the Greater Houston area and across the country have reported higher rates of turnover and sta burnout during the pandemic as nurses faced heavier workloads and treated critically ill COVID-19 patients, according to a February study from the U.S. O ce of Inspector General. At the same time, local educators training the next generation of nurses said programming was temporarily paused; already-limited capacities in clinical programs became even more restrictive; and graduations were delayed. But hospitals across the state have faced nursing shortages since long before the pandemic, health care o cials said. The Texas Department of State Health Services projects the Gulf Coast region will have a de cit of 21,400 registered nurses by 2032 as the growing demand continues to outweigh the supply. “Health care workforce shortages existed before the pandemic. We didn’t have enough doctors; we didn’t have enough nurses, and the pandemic has de nitely exacerbated that problem,” American Medical Association President Susan Bailey said. The median turnover rate for registered nurses in Gulf Coast hospitals was 17.5% in 2019, according to DSHS data. Since the pandemic began, many nurses have considered leaving the profession between the anxiety over bringing COVID-19 home to their families and losing at least 4,000 health care workers

to the virus nationally, Bailey said. In the last decade, the Gulf Coast region’s supply of registered nurses has grown by 45%, per the DSHS, but that growth is not enough to keep up with the population. Nursing education leaders said there is not a shortage of individuals interested in the profession, but training programs are competitive and expensive. Nickie Loftin, nursing program director at Lone Star College-Kingwood, said 1,500 individuals applied to the college’s nursing program in January,
but the college can only accept 100 applicants to its registered nursing program, 60 for its transition program and 24 for the licensed vocational nursing program each year. While the college used to accept 80 students per year to its RN program, it increased its capacity to 100 students this spring semester, she said. “I’m trying to increase my enrollment as much as I possibly can to meet the demands of the community, but at the same time having to balance the ability

FROMKELLY: Avid readers will notice a new face on this page next month. Hannah Zedaker, who has been with our publication for more than ve years, will become the new editor of the Lake Houston-Humble-Kingwood edition of Community Impact Newspaper . After more than two years in this role, I recently accepted a promotion to be the managing editor of our South Houston papers.

Bush blamed the federal government’s “red tape” for Harris County not being awarded funding. “Money from the federal government is, as always, tied up with endless mounds of red tape and bureaucracy,” Bush said in a June 17 statement. “During Hurricane Harvey, Texans in Harris County undoubtedly suffered some of the costliest damage in the state. After considerable back and forth with the [President Joe] Biden administration’s Department of Housing and Urban Development, the General Land Office will allocate $750 million in funding for mitigation efforts in Harris County and continue to work around the federal government’s ever-changing bureaucratic demands.”
Harvey in the Gulf Coast area took place within Harris County. However, county officials were notified in May they had not been awarded any grant funding. County officials said they believe the formula GLO officials used to determine which grant applications would be awarded funding was discriminatory against large, urban areas such as Harris County and the city of Houston. Following requests from county leaders to reconsider, Bush requested a direct allocation to Harris County for flood-mitigation efforts from HUD less than a week later on May 26. However, that request was denied, according to a June 14 letter from HUD. Officials said the law prevents HUD from providing a direct allocation of Community Development Block Grant Mitigation funding to the county. Instead, the GLO will now draft an action plan to award $750 million for
Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush announced plans to subaward Harris County $750 million in flood mitigation funding following denial by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, according to a June 17 news release. Harris County officials had previously anticipated receiving $1 billion in Hurricane Harvey relief funding from HUD. However, instead of directly allocating the funds to Harris County, HUD sent the relief money to the Texas General Land Office to be made available as competitive grants. As previously reported by Community Impact Newspaper , the Harris County Flood Control District submitted $915 million in grant applications last October in hopes of receiving federal funds earmarked in 2018 for flood mitigation efforts following Harvey in 2017. According to county officials, 40% of the $125 billion in damage caused by

AT THE CAPITOL Bills passed in legislative session aimto tackle criminal justice reform
BY WESLEY GARDNER
Additionally, Huffman lauded a pair of bills, House bills 492 and 929, which address no-knock warrant limitations and procedures for police officer body-worn cameras, respectively. She said she was proud of the Senate’s work this session. “[While] there were other bills that did not have the votes to pass, I am hopeful that these bills will continue to strengthen the crucial relationship between law enforcement officers and the communities they serve,” she said. However, Sandra Guerra Thompson, director of the University of Houston Criminal Justice Institute, said HB 3712, which prohibits chokeholds, has limited reach because many agencies already prohibit chokeholds. She also cited concern over requiring officers to intervene if they see another officer use excessive force, noting exceptions exist if the other officer deems the force is necessary to get the person into custody. “There’s only a duty to intervene if the officer knows that excessive force is being used that’s illegal,” Sandra Guerra Thompson said. “All of those things are judgment calls.” Still, Sandra Guerra Thompson said she saw some value in the laws that did pass. “They’re important in terms of signaling, perhaps,” she said. “They would require some training, I would think, so officers are told ‘You do have this duty to intervene.’” Meanwhile, HBs 829 and 88 authored by Senfronia Thompson that failed to pass would have required law enforcement agencies to adopt a set schedule of disciplinary actions for officers and eliminated qualified immunity for officers being sued over issues including the use of force. Sandra Guerra Thompson said she believed those bills would have had a greater effect in instituting substantial change. “I think we would have seen more of a cultural change if we saw bills passing that had to do more with discipline or lawsuits,” she said. “Those kinds of bills would definitely have changed the culture in terms of forcing more accountability.”
LEGISLATIVE RUNDOWN A number of bills aimed at reforming Texas’ criminal justice system were penned during the 2021 legislative session. Here is a look at how they fared.
Lawmakers in Texas rounded out the 2021 legislative session in late May, passing several bills aimed at addressing police conduct. While some Houston-area elected officials believe the passed bills marked significant improvements in the criminal justice system, others believe more is needed to enact substantial change. Criminal justice reform was a prominent issue this session after Houston native George Floyd died last year, although numerous bills failed to gain approval in both the House and Senate. Floyd died last May after former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin pressed his knee against Floyd’s neck for nine minutes, sparking protests and demonstrations nationwide calling for reform. Chauvin was convicted in April of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, according to verdicts issued at the Fourth Judicial District Court of Minnesota. State Sen. Joan Huffman, R-Houston, who served as chair of the Senate Committee on Jurisprudence, said the Senate worked with law enforcement and community groups to develop and pass key reform bills. “The Senate has worked diligently on criminal justice reforms designed to instill public confidence in the justice system, ensure accountability and preserve public safety,” she said. However, state Rep. Senfronia Thompson, D-Houston, who authored several bills pertaining to criminal justice reform that did not pass, said there was still more work to be done. She represents a portion of the city of Humble. “It was not a good session for criminal justice,” Senfronia Thompson said. “I think there was some change that we can build upon in the future.” A closer look Among the bills that passed are a ban on certain police chokeholds and neck restraints and a requirement for officers to intervene when they witness their colleagues using excessive force.

House Bill 88 would have eliminated qualified immunity for officers being sued over issues including the use of force. HB 492 would limit no-knock warrants, in which officers can enter a home without announcing themselves. The bill would only allow judges to sign warrants approved by a police chief or sheriff. Officers must be in uniform to execute the warrant. HB 829 would have required law enforcement agencies to adopt a set schedule of disciplinary actions to impose on officers based on the current wrongdoing and the officers’ prior record. HB 830 would have limited officers’ ability to arrest individuals for traffic offenses that would have at most resulted in a fine. HB 929 would require police officers to activate body cameras during investigations. They can only deactivate cameras if they encounter a person unrelated to the investigation. HB 3712 would prohibit chokeholds unless an officer believes the restraint will prevent serious bodily injury or death. It would require officers to prevent others from using excessive force and aid a person who has been seriously injured.

improved to prevent essential power generating transmission facilities from being shut down by ERCOT like what happened during the storm.” Under SB 3, the Public Utilities Commission and the Railroad Commission of Texas are tasked with weatherizing infrastructure for all seasons of the year, said state Sen. Charles Schwertner, R Georgetown, who authored the bill, at the June 8 press conference. The bill also improves communication among state agencies and the public. A power outage alert system will notify the public if state power supply becomes inadequate. In the same token, SB 2 focuses on reforming ERCOT board leadership. A selection committee will appoint eight of the board members, and all members must be residents of Texas. Sen. Kelly Hancock, R Dallas, said the legislation will ensure another catastrophic weather event will not a ect the power grid.
Gov. Greg Abbott signed Senate bills 2 and 3 into law June 8, establishing sweeping reforms of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas and weatherization of state power generation facilities, e ective Sept. 1. The bills are designed to prevent another extreme weather event from shutting down the Texas power grid similar to what happened during the severe winter storm in February. The storm left millions of houses without power for days and killed an estimated 150 Texas residents, according to a report from the Texas Department of State Health Services. Additionally, these bills create greater accountability within the power system, Abbott said. “The Railroad Commission and ERCOT now must inspect power facilities, and failure to weatherize can result in penalties of up to $1 million [per day of noncompliance],” Abbott said. “The power grid integrity is also
