KEY TAKEAWAYS
The Nurse Experience 2025 report data shows a significant decrease in nurse engagement and increasingly high turnover rates.
The Gen Z exodus from nursing has less to do with lack of commitment and more to do with unmet needs, centering around purpose, support, and alignment with their organizations.
When nurses are disengaged or have lower engagement at work, there are higher rates of adverse events, decreased patient satisfaction, and a degredation in teamwork.
