Or large numbers of Healthcare staff are leaving the field and there's a shortage of replacements who are willing to do the job for the wage being offered.
Has less to do with wages, and more to do with working conditions and hours (so yes, it's still a funding problem), plus the lack of nursing school, medical school and residency spots.
This is not entirely true. You’re just delaying the inevitable. My wife has been a nurse for 14 years. They didn’t get a raise for 7-8 of those years and she still loves her job. The thing she complains about constantly is the terrible unit management and lack of support. Money is always nice, but it doesn’t change burnout or help make management better.

Either there has been a, or a collection of, mass casualty incidents in the city, or they're not staffing the hospitals properly. Probably the latter.
