Nursing-using the nursing process.
It has often been pointed out that the real problem of nurse numbers is not the failure to recruit or to recruit appropriately, but to retain nurses once they have started. The indications are that where the nursing process approach is used in practice as well as taught, nurses (both learners and trained staff) derive more satisfaction from their work. They are then less likely to become disillusioned and/or leave nursing.
