Nursing leadership is faced with a very challenging dilemma. In order to drive the profession forward, those in the workforce for many years must adapt to changes in technology and systems while integrating their bedside practice to support an ample amount of time completing all the daily requirements of the job. Newer nurses must learn how to use their technology skills, yet learn to interact at the bedside, again finding the same balance. Nursing leadership has been tasked to move the profession forward thru education, certification, improved outcomes, and patient satisfaction. Today's nurse must use a variety of tools in order to meet the many needs of the patient of today's standards. The patient has shifted to a customer, where rankings and number of stars can help determine where you wish to receive healthcare services. The new nurse must maintain professional integrity while ensuring customer satisfaction. This concept has lead to job dissatisfaction in terms of the customer is always right, yet the medical staff receive all the training. The new nurse takes this responsibility in a mannerism that chooses movement, rather than sustainability. Many hospital cultures are facing new nurses entering the workforce who move around frequently. The dedicated old school nurse is far and few in between. The new nurse moves around, gains experiences, and leaves the dedication once viewed as the hallmark of nursing, at the door. The nursing leader must find new methods to motivate, entice, and keep the new nurse engaged and focused in their current practice. As we grow the nursing graduate into a productive nurse, another organization is willing to do the same in a specialty areas. New nurses are finding themselves in environments they may not be prepared for. It is nursing leadership's challenge as a profession to ensure we grow nurses up correctly and accurately prepare them for whatever environment we hire them for. It is important for leaders to communicate and network to ensure this new generation of nurses does not fall thru the cracks and just move around the profession. We must give them feedback, teach them, mentor them, and not allow them to move into situations they are unprepared for. As customer and patients expectations increase, we seem to have decreased are standards as a profession. By this, we must have policies in place that require minimal experiences and practice encounters before moving around a facility. This new generation of nursing enters the workforce and after 6 months feel they have the experience to move around. It seems thru the lens of nurse manager, that the plateau affect takes place quickly for many nurses. Mastering a medication pass and charting system seems to be the motivator to judge their readiness to more critical situations. The old school nurse experiences many situations over years of loyal service, allowing them to handle just about anything thrown at them in today's environment. The new nurse lacks the critical thinking and nursing judgement to handle many situations. As hospital's increase their speed of processes, the new nurse struggles to keep up. I often hear, I had to care for 8 patient's today. This means learning the history and personality of 8 patients during an 8 hour shift on the floor. We discharge patients home much quicker tan just 5 year ago, while emergency rooms flood with those needing to be admitted. The new nurse must learn more than skills and tasks. This constant turnover and lack of longevity, takes away from the overall experiences and ability to problem solve that the older generation nurse has. It is important for the new nurse to learn the whole system, the complete patient experience. We as nurse leaders must expose the new nurse to the complete patient experience while asking for their dedicated service to learn and gain knowledge. This is not just a job that pays the bills. This is not just a job that can give you the knowledge to be hired in a new area once the old area feels less enticing. We must force nurses to stay put and learn and grow rather than allow them to move around thinking they have the experience and knowledge to be successful in new environments.
