Senior staff need more support to stay in post.
Every year, Nursing Management's sister publication Nursing Standard conducts a survey of nurse directors in the NHS. This year's results (analysis, page 8 ) reveal that turnover at this executive level remains worryingly high. They show that 132 chief nurses at 230 English trusts, 14 Scottish and seven Welsh health boards have been in post only since 2014, and 33 stepped into the role just this year.
