Towards an integrated approach for the management of ageing nurses ABSTRACTAim The objective of this study is to provide an overview of the ageing of the nursing workforce and to explore retention strategies centred on the entire professional life and on all age groups. Background The presence of an increasing proportion of ageing workers presents a major challenge to the nursing profession. Evaluation Presentation of theories about the development of a healthy workplace leads to the identification of a framework on which managers can base their management decisions. Key issues Examples of incentives relating to the framework are presented which were expressed by both nurses under 50 years of age and those over 50. Conclusions Introducing incentives centred on all age groups provides an opportunity to create a healthy workplace for all generations of nurses. Accepted for publication: 4 August 2005 |
