Where Have All The Nurses Gone? : The Impact Of The Nursing Shortage On American Healthcare

Attribution
Faye Satterly
Publication Details
Book, Prometheus Books, 2004
Description
At 6:30 a.m. a head nurse reviews room assignments and the day’s challenges ahead: twenty-nine patients, most of them seriously ill, and four nurses to care for them. Faye Satterly, a registered nurse with nearly two decades of experience, spells out some alarming statistics: the average nurse is forty-five years old and anticipating retirement, while only 12 percent of nurses are under age thirty. This fascinating yet disturbing account by a veteran nurse with extensive field experience is a compelling call for action to counter the nursing shortage and ensure that ‘caring’ regains its premium status in healthcare.
