This project aimed to reduce the 3-month turnover rate of new nursing staff in a department of internal medicine. An analysis of the current situation revealed that the 3-month turnover rate of new nurses in the department of internal medicine in 2016 was as high as 30.3%. The reasons were as follows: (1) new nurses lacked professional knowledge and self-confidence, were incompetent, had interpersonal problems, lacked a sense belonging, and had inability to integrate into teams. (2) Nursing preceptors had inconsistency in teaching methods, placed considerable pressure on students during assessments, and had a low willingness to teach. (3) Working environment factors included cumbersome work, excessive examination and treatment, a fast-paced working environment, unstable patient conditions, inadequate care and support, and teaching materials being in written form. Diversifying teaching design, promoting care activities within the unit, strengthening peer relationships, and setting up a reward system resulted in the reduction of 3-month turnover rate of new nurses to 21.6% in 2017, reaching the target of this project. As a result of this project, new nurses have more diverse, clear, and convenient learning content, feel loved and cared for, and are provided with more guidance and support; thus, they are willing to stay in their jobs. |
