  • Title: Plan development for a nurse recruitment-retention program.
    Author: Wall LL.
    Journal: J Nurs Adm; 1988 Feb; 18(2):20-6. PubMed ID: 3276840.
    Abstract:
    The key to resolving the nursing shortage starts with the long-term commitment and support of hospital administrators. Many articles address the reasons for registered nurse turnover and for job dissatisfaction. They also address recruitment and retention incentives, motivators, and hygienes. This discussion focuses on what hospital administrators can do to create and to monitor a nurse recruitment-retention program that addresses the long-term problem of nurse turnover and job dissatisfaction, based on the concept that retention of nurses begins at the time of recruitment.
