A new study reveals concerning data about nurse retention in Newfoundland and Labrador, with one in two nurses leaving the profession by the age of 35. This trend poses significant challenges for the healthcare system, which is already under strain due to a shortage of healthcare professionals.

This alarming turnover rate not only affects patient care but also escalates the burden on remaining staff. As Newfoundland and Labrador strive to stabilize their healthcare system, addressing these retention issues becomes increasingly critical.
