Background: Currently in the United States, the demand for RNs is stronger than is being supplied. This site-specific pediatric RN turnover rate was estimated at 15% per year, which is above the national average.
Methods: A descriptive correlational study was conducted using the Revised Casey-Fink Nurse Retention Survey tool.
Results: The top 2 areas that impacted nursing retention at this study site were workplace morale, and pay and benefits. These data are inconsistent with multiple other studies where decreased job satisfaction and burnout were top factors in nursing retention.
Conclusions: Although national data reveal reasons for leaving an institution or the profession, it is important to survey the local workforce to identify areas for focus in retention efforts.

Specialist nurses working in Therapeutic Apheresis Services (TAS) at NHS Blood and Transplant participate in an on-call rota. This means working above and beyond their rostered hours and can lead to them working 24 hours in one period. There is a noted risk of fatigue for people who work more than 13 hours in one stretch, and therefore it is important to understand how to recognise and manage the signs of fatigue.

Introduction: Peripheral intravenous cannulation (PIVC) is a common and complex procedure with low first-attempt success rates, causing patient suffering and increased healthcare costs. Quiet Eye (QE) training, a gaze-focused approach, has shown promise in improving procedural PIVC skills. We will examine the effectiveness of traditional technical training (TT) and QE training (QET) on student nurse PIVC performance.
