The implications of high turnover rates in nursing are far-reaching:
- Patient Care: High turnover can lead to a loss of experienced and skilled nurses, potentially compromising the quality of patient care. - Financial Costs: The costs associated with recruiting, hiring, and training new nurses can be significant. Additionally, overtime pay for remaining staff can further strain budgets. - Staff Morale: Constant turnover can lead to a lack of cohesion and continuity within the nursing team, negatively impacting morale and job satisfaction.
