Hospital administration needs to be more involved solving the problem of retention, for the returning older nurse as well as for the newly hired registered nurse. There should be some sort of assessment for the newly hired registered nurse to pass to administration, detailing her satisfaction with her orientation, the attitude shown by the person who oriented her, how safe she feels performing her duties after orientation, getting answers to her questions answered in a way that is encouraging and not demeaning. Registered nurses who are responsible for orientation should be held accountable after a certain number of negative assessments.
