Activity Summary:
Appropriate staffing is a challenge nurse leaders commonly face and tools to overcome it are not readily available.

This is an opportunity for nurse leaders, orientation coordinators, and preceptors to learn from one large department’s creative solutions to recruit, onboard, and orient large numbers of nurses while improving the quality of care and staff satisfaction.
Objectives:
• Identify methods to develop a hiring model using historical data and effective recruitment strategies.
• Describe how appropriate staffing impacts retention, quality of care, and the overall work environment.
