Keeping nurses in nursing: the executive's challenge.
A view of the nursing shortage from the perspective of a nurse executive proposes that the blaming must stop and everyone must own the problem if the nursing shortage is to be corrected. Strategies that include and extend beyond a local nursing unit or institution are proposed that require everyone to invest in synergestic strategies to improve the quality of the work environment for all nurses.
