Study finds nurses primarily ended health care employment due to systemic features of their employer.
We can improve nurse retention by:
➡️ Reducing & preventing burnout,
➡️ improving nurse staffing levels,
➡️ Supporting nurses’ work-life balance

NEW PAPER:
Below average midwifery staffing was associated with higher rates of postpartum readmissions within 7 days of discharge (adjusted OR 1.108, 95% CI 1.003 to 1.223).

More great work led by midwife ⁦Lesley Turner⁩ bmjopen.bmj.com/content/14/4/e…

The result of very many countries failure to invest in their Nursing workforce as health demands rise and the resultant global shortage means the market for nurses is much more competitive and that has health, economic and ethical consequences. amp.theguardian.com/society/2024/m…

Nursing staffing levels impact patient safety and outcomes, we can’t improve one without improving the other. To do this we need an accurate picture of how things are now.

Delegation must be based on an assessment of COMPLEXITY & RISK. Not task delegation.

Presentation by ⁦Prof Alison Leary 💙#ProtectNurse⁩

In nursing we have taskification of nursing work - failing to recognise the complexity and risk.

Wonderful to hear Prof Alison Leary 💙#ProtectNurse again.

“NURSING is a profession of VIGILANCE”

But that is not factored into nursing workload tools or health care workforce planning.
We need to change how nursing is understood and planned.

The RCN set Workforce Standards. Now it’s time to make the case for Nurse : Patient ratios.
I’ll be setting out the evidence that demonstrates the critical importance of getting nurse staffing right. #RCNRatios #safestaffing #valuingnursing

“This invisible surveillance system by highly trained & experienced RNs is the most critical–but least understood–of the services they provide.
But the effectiveness of that surveillance depends on how many patients a nurse has to care for #safestaffing ldi.upenn.edu/our-work/resea…

Darn - I shall be travelling!
But looks like a really special evening ahead.

Sounds incredibly valuable.

This #InternationalWomensDay take up space, speak your truth and don't be afraid to be disliked. If they want you to be quiet, they already don't like you.

Misogyny keeps great women small for the egos of mediocre men.

pat cullen It was great to be there.
Such good energy in the room.
It gives me renewed faith that we can change things.
We don’t have to stand back & watch unsafe conditions be normalised…
The energy & commitment of #RCNReps24 + evidence + strong leadership ➡️ CHANGE!
#valuenursing

How to celebration international women’s day:

1. Say “no” guilt free.
2. Disappoint someone and be ok with it
3. Nap
4. Don’t apologize or over-explain why you feel the way you do
5. Tell a woman in your life how much you admire her.

I have learnt so much from other women these last few years.

To be your whole self.
Listen to your body.
Use your head.
Use your heart.
Use your voice - for you & for others. To call out the wrongs &
to celebrate the rights.
And to sing with joy.
Thank you 🙏

Fair pay and safestaffing go hand in hand - Prof Nicola Ranger on safestaffing #RCNREPS24 Prof Jane Ball (FRCN)💙

Good to be here to speak at #RCNReps24 about #safestaffing - again. Because the issues are as important now as ever they were.
Having enough RNs is vital. Not just to safety, but to care quality and to protecting nurses from untenable workloads & pressure.

Are #NHS career pathways fit for purpose and what more can be done to promote great participation and retention in the NHS workforce?
