It is a sad situation for older nurses who have worked hard their whole career and now it doesn't take much for administration to get rid of older nurses and hire in all new grads and want to give them as little orientation as they can and then put them on their own. Or else you have nurses leaving right and left for other jobs so you do work short staffed or have bigger patient assignments to take care of. So patient care suffers very much and most of the time families are unhappy also because they feel their family member is not getting good care.
