The Gritty Nurse Podcast


Jul 8, 2021

Nursing morale is at an all time low. How do we keep nurses and other frontline practitioners happy on their jobs? What does it take to keep nurses happy and retain them? Unfortunately, this year- the pizza is just not going to cut it. In this episode, Sara and Amie examine what it takes to really retain nurses. We discuss innovative solutions and suggestions that may keep your healthcare staff happy and continue coming into work. We also discuss the harsh realities nurses face trying to stay healthy while at work. 

"Start the retention process when employees are still open to staying, not after they already told you they are leaving".

"You do not build a business, you build people--and then the people build the business".
