要旨

Background:

Elderly care nursing has problems such as staffing shortages, stress and limited career opportunities, which are prompting nurses to leave.

Aim:

The aims of this service evaluation were to explore the factors contributing to high turnover of nurses in elderly care and propose retention strategies.

Design:

A qualitative design was used.

Methods:

Seven semi-structured interviews were conducted with nurses from six wards within the elderly care division.

Results:

Three main themes emerged: staff and patient safety; lack of career progression; and training needs.

Conclusion:

Nurses in elderly care face both personal and organisational challenges. Prioritising their development, safety and recognition is crucial for retention. Trusts should acknowledge and support these nurses' hard work and commitment. Recommendations include flexible working patterns, providing adequate skill mix on the wards and opportunities for career progression in elderly care.
