注册护士流动率是护士就业市场的一个重要指标。尽管它被广泛用作保健系统分析的一个衡量标准，但在更替率的定义方面缺乏一致性。有些定义包括任何护士离开一个组织;其他可能包括非自愿和自愿离开。这些不一致的定义也导致了不同的更替率。RN工作项目是一项为期10年的新护士小组研究。数据是从新护士那里收集的，而不是从一个特定的组织。大约17.5%的新护士在开始工作的一年内离开了他们的第一份工作。流动率的一致和准确的测量是解决组织工作环境和政策的重要一步。
Registered nurse turnover is an important indicator of the nurse job market. Despite its wide use as a measure for health-care system analysis, there is a lack of consistency in the definition of turnover. Some definitions include any nurse leaving an organization; others may include involuntary and voluntary leaving. These inconsistent definitions also result in various turnover rates. The RN Work Project is a 10-year panel study of new nurses. Data were collected from the new nurses, rather than from a specific organization. About 17.5% of new nurses leave their first job within 1 year of starting their jobs. Consistent and accurate measurement of turnover is an important step in addressing organizational work environments and policies about the nursing workforce.
