Growing ambulatory care nurse leaders in a multigenerational workforce
1College of Nursing, Department of Public Health, East Carolina University, Greenville, NC, USA.
Abstract:
Ambulatory care faces challenges in sustaining a nursing workforce in the future as newly licensed nurses are heavily recruited to inpatient settings and retirements will impact ambulatory care sooner than other areas. Building a diverse team by recruiting nurses of different ages (generations) and skills may result in a more successful and robust organization.
