Pretty sure we've got a nursing shortage here in Australia. Should be easier for you. Probably would want to do further research on it.

It would be easier, but you would not be eligible for financial aid from the US government.

There are only 12-15 universities in Australia that teach nursing each with around 80-150 students - of these only a small portion (10%) are allocated to international students (the majority come from China and India). As mentioned above - you will not be eligible for any funding (Australian universities do not offer scholarships for international students) so you will need the international fees and living costs (although you will be able to earn 60% of your living costs if you can find a job working the maximum number of hours a week).
