Cyprus has a problem. It needs more nurses. A new law was stopped. This law would help find nurses from other countries. It will not be discussed now. This is bad for hospitals. They do not have enough nurses.
The government wanted to help. The law would let nurses come from outside the EU. There would be rules. Foreign nurses could not be too many. They also needed good English.
But some groups did not like the law. They were worried about nurses from Cyprus. The parliament could not agree. So the law did not pass.
This is a big problem for hospitals. They need more nurses. There are many empty jobs. Many nurses are old. More people need doctors.
This makes it hard for hospitals. They work very hard. Patient care can be a problem. Cyprus needs a new plan. They must find nurses fast.
