The purpose of this analysis is to determine US minority nurses’ job satisfaction and turnover using three outcome variables: job dissatisfaction; change of jobs; and intent to quit.
In conclusion, attracting minority nurses to our profession demands a workplace free of discrimination, but it also demands creating an enticing profession. As the minority population grows, and as more minorities enter into high-skill jobs, nurse leaders need to work to make our profession desirable to caring, competent people of all ethnicities. We can begin by making the BSN the entry-level degree. Then, provide a workplace, hospital unit or otherwise, that respects and values all nurses as much as it values high-quality patient care.
