Several factors contribute to high turnover rates in nursing. Common reasons include:
- Work Environment: Poor working conditions, such as inadequate staffing, high patient-to-nurse ratios, and lack of support from management, can lead to job dissatisfaction. - Burnout: The high demands and emotional strain of the nursing profession can lead to burnout, prompting nurses to leave their jobs. - Career Advancement: Limited opportunities for professional growth and advancement can cause nurses to seek employment elsewhere. - Compensation: Inadequate pay and benefits can also drive nurses to leave their positions for better-paying opportunities.
