Ans) Hospitals and healthcare facilities must do their best to recruit and retain good nurses by creating an atmosphere that appreciates nurses, offers advancement opportunities and gives them a stronger voice in the system.
- List of ways healthcare organizations can keep nurses on staff amid the threat of a nursing shortage. Strategies include:
1) Allow scheduling flexibility:
- This helps nurses juggle their busy work schedule with home life and educational opportunities, and also allows them to decompress between stressful, emotionally demanding shifts.
- Keeping nurses happy when it comes to scheduling will create a more positive work atmosphere and help the hospital retain quality nurses.
2) Promote career development:
- With new Institute of Medicine recommendations that call for 80 percent of nurses to have a bachelor's degree by 2020, it's important that hospitals help nurses obtain the highest education possible.
- As a result, nurses will feel more satisfied and more likely to stay within the organization.
3) Listen to nurses' voices:
- Give nurses and staff ample face time with supervisors and managers, so they can voice concerns and share ideas about improving workflow.
- Implementing those ideas and suggestions also shows nurses that hospital managers are serious about their opinions and input.
