As part of National Nurses Week, PSQH reached out to our readers with a few questions about how nursing impacts patient safety and healthcare quality. The Quick Poll had a total of 102 respondents. The PSQH Quick Poll is presented in partnership with Drexel University.
Of the 20% of frontline nurses who say in the survey that they are considering leaving their jobs, 41% blame inadequate support from leadership as their top reason for doing so, second only to the 53% of unhappy respondents who say they're simply looking for a better job.
On episode 129 of PSQH: The Podcast, Jennifer Schmitz, Chief Clinical Officer, Emergency Nurses Association, discusses how nursing leaders can help facilities reduce workplace violence. This episode is sponsored by Drexel University as part of PSQH’s National Nurses Week activities.
