Overview:
The numbers speak for themselves: Some 33% of new nurses leave during their first year. The impact to hospitals? Some put the average cost of turnover at $52,000 per RN nurse. The evidence shows that effective orientation, preceptor and nurse residency programs can positively impact new nurse competency and retention.
But new nurses should be supported beyond the initial onboarding with a safety net that includes ongoing access to professional development and expert nurse lifelines – sometimes called Clinical Nurse Transition Coaches.
Our expert panelists will discuss the strategies their organizations are using to combat turnover and support nurses' internal growth, allowing providers to keep a healthy and consistent workforce.
