title: Recruitment. Promoting nursing: a new approach.
abstract: Concern over the implications for recruitment brought about by the predicted decline in the population of 18-year-olds has caused nursing to re-evaluate its recruitment and retention policies. Susan Taylor describes an innovative approach to increasing recruitment which involved student nurses speaking directly to school pupils about life in nursing. Early results indicate that the project has achieved considerable success.
