International Journal of Nursing Practice, 10/12/09
Langan JC et al. – Work condition improvement, recognition of one's work, opportunities for professional growth and family needs consideration were identified as key enticing factors for returning to nursing. Many respondents identified needing review of medicines, intravenous skills, new technologies and a refresher course. Acting on their voiced concerns will enhance nurse recruitment and retention.

| Because our study sample of registered nurses chose to keep their licenses current, we surmised that at least some of them considered returning to practice at some point in time. However, this sample of nurses had not been asked to express what it would take to entice them back to practice. What better way to inform potential employers of RNs than to ask the nurses themselves what it would take to get them to return to the RN workforce? By feeling valued and providing refresher activities to help them feel competent and confident in their practice, these nurses can be valuable assets to the health care system. |
