Nurses call for change as many reveal they're ‘extremely likely’ to leave profession: ‘Emotional, stressful'
Fox News
Nurses aren’t optimistic that this year will be any better than last year — and more than one-third of them are “extremely likely" to change jobs, according to a new survey.
The majority of nurses (80%) said they think 2024 will be either "no better or worse" for the profession than 2023 — while 38% said it will be worse. "This is not just a nurse morale issue. It's a public health issue." "While it is truly a gift to be a nurse, the feeling of not having enough resources to care for your patients can be overwhelming." The group has made great strides "in fortifying our nursing workforce." Melissa Rudy is health editor and a member of the lifestyle team at Fox News Digital.
