  • Title: Keeping the wisdom at work.
    Author: Simons SL.
    Journal: Neonatal Netw; 2007; 26(4):267-9. PubMed ID: 17710961.
    Abstract:
    There is a looming shortage of nurses with a diminishing pool of talent to staff the nation's NICUs. One critical strategy is to retain the talent and experience base of the older nurse. The replacement of experienced nurses is very costly to the unit and negatively impacts quality of care, patient safety, productivity, and unit cohesion. Older nurses can, do, and will make choices about where they work. Organizations have a responsibility to respond to their needs and align strategies aimed at their retention. Understanding the needs of older nurses will enable managers to better retain the staff they lead.
