Model for consideration: retaining the experienced aging workforce in home care.

Satisfying positions for the aging experienced nursing workforce are lacking. The model for consideration has 3 levels of nursing practice, including those of nurse case managers, comprehensive data assessment nurses, and visiting nurses.
