Abstract:
The predominantly female nursing workforce means that issues such as combining work and child care responsibilities are central to people's careers and to workforce planning. A questionnaire survey of newly qualified registered general nurses provided valuable information about the circumstances, experiences and plans of 936 women. Implications for the availability of flexible working, career guidance and opportunities for professional development are discussed.
