Just wondering what hospitals are doing to recruit new nurses to their facilities. Currently my hospital has been hiring travelers to help support the lack of nurses while new residents who take 4-6 months to orientate are being hired. Hoping to get some good ideas to help support a letter I'm writing to the President and VP of Nursing and Patient Care Services. Need your ideas. Also wondering what other hospitals are doing to help keep staff who are burnt out and working extra shifts because of being short staffed. Thanks in advance for all the comments.
