Are you meaning nurses or NPs? Big difference. Some NPs already make 200+. I will promise you there is zero chance nurses (RNs, LPNs, MAs) phase out doctors. Their knowledge level and skill set are just no where near comparable.

My wife is an NP and worked as a Nurse while she was in her master's program. Working for the hospital got old. The hospital is no different than a public sector business. All they care about is the money and they're perpetually trying to do more with less even at the detriment of patients. She's an NP for a private practice surgeon now, and he pays her a great salary and bonuses are unreal. She went the AGACNP route rather than family NP which is just treating runny noses all day.

The traveling nurse gig has somewhat dried up since covid let up. There are still travel nurse gigs, but not quite to the degree there were.
