Background
Nurse shortage has been a on going problem within the health care field and has become
a giant to many organizations. Studies have shown that there is more nurse leaving a place of
employment faster than hiring nurses in. There are many factors that play into the nurse shortage,
such as the aging population of nurses, not enough entry-level nursing schools, nurse turnover,
etc (RWJF, 2018). With that said, this paper will talk about nurse turnover rates within
organizations, and interventions to implement an outcome that will decrease the nurse turnover
rates.

with the resources needed, to perform their duty, moreover, management did not support nursing
autonomy (Dotson, 2013).
