  • Title: The older nurse in the workplace: does age matter?
    Author: Norman LD, Donelan K, Buerhaus PI, Willis G, Williams M, Ulrich B, Dittus R.
    Journal: Nurs Econ; 2005; 23(6):282-9, 279. PubMed ID: 16459900.
    Abstract:
    Between 2010 and 2020, over 40% of the RN workforce will be over 50 years of age, and many RNs are expected to retire and withdraw from the workforce. Given that older nurses are the fastest growing cohort of the workforce, the important findings presented in this article deserve careful consideration by policymakers, health care leaders, and managers.
