Abstract: More nurses without critical care experience are being hired by intensive care units.

“…Many of these outcomes are related to staff metrics such as retention and staff satisfaction (Cartwright, 2021; Gallagher & Ricords, 2021; Hall et al, 2020; Hernandez et al, 2020).

This reduction resulted in a cost savings of $936 per nurse.…”
