Do you have any best practices that have decreased RN turnover and/or increased RN recruitment? What are your success stories?

As far as the obvious.... better pay, no mandatory OT, safe patient staffing ratios, and not throwing your new nurses to the wolves help......

One thing that impressed alot of our staff was actually in a census pinch seeing our CNO and a few SUITES actually working on the floor in scrubs to help out....... WOW what a sight !!!!!

WOW!!!!

That would impress me, too!
