The emotional and behavioral process of staff nurse turnover.
Nurses who leave their jobs proceed through stages of disengagement, some of which are quite intense. Yet 88% of the nurses in this study say that an appropriate managerial intervention early in their leave-taking decision process would have halted their decision to leave. The authors describe stages of nurses' leave-taking decisions, their experiences, and their behaviors.
