💭 Ever thought about the significance personal relationships with our nurses has on overall health care? 🌟 Each of us holds unique bonds with nurses, whether through familial ties, friendships, or personal encounters with their extraordinary care. These personal connections capture the profound impact nurses have on individuals and communities alike. Did you know? Multiple studies indicate patients with a strong personal connection with their nurses are more likely to have better health outcomes and higher levels of satisfaction with their care. In fact, patients who feel emotionally supported by their nurses have lower levels of anxiety, experience shorter hospital stays, and are more compliant with their treatment plans. We've witnessed the transformative power of nursing firsthand. From comforting sick loved ones to receiving compassionate care during our own health journeys, nurses embody empathy, expertise, and unwavering dedication. Their contributions extend far beyond medical interventions, shaping the fabric of our healthcare experiences. 💖 At NursingFront, we're deeply grateful for the richness of these personal connections and the valuable role nurses play in our lives. Through advocacy and support, we’re striving to empower nurses and champion initiatives that prioritize their retention. Let’s celebrate the personal connections we share with our nurses and honor their profound impact on healthcare. We want to hear your experience. Help us care for those who take care of us. 🌟 #NurseRetention #PatientCare #HealthcareHeroes #PersonalConnections www.NursingFront.com

Leadership in nursing goes far beyond just checking off tasks on a to-do list. It's about standing up for the needs and rights of patients, ensuring they receive the best care possible. But that's not all. It's also about kindling a sense of unity and collaboration among the nursing team. Great nursing leaders inspire everyone to work together seamlessly, like pieces of a puzzle coming together to create a bigger picture. Moreover, these leaders cultivate an atmosphere where two vital qualities thrive: compassion and excellence. Compassion is the heart of nursing, where every patient is treated with kindness and understanding. Excellence, on the other hand, ensures that this care is delivered at the highest standards possible. Together, they form the backbone of outstanding nursing care.

Incredible Health also reported that 80% of younger nurses requested more flexible scheduling but that only a tiny minority of hospitals attempted to offer that option. Employers use costly incentives such as higher wages and sign-on bonuses, but younger nurses value flexibility more than higher wages. Facilities emphasize qualifications and experience in hiring, but the critically needed younger nurses have fewer of these attributes. We need to align hiring expectations by the employers and a disconnect between what they look for and what younger nurses desire in the features of employment .https://lnkd.in/epvUmbMT
