There is currently a worldwide shortage of nurses. This shortage is particularly acute in a number of publicly dominated health care systems including the Australian, British and Canadian systems. Given that nurses are a key input in the production of health care and therefore health, the need to address this issue by increasing the number of school-leavers entering the profession and/or improving the retention of training nurses is of paramount importance. This project will use high quality cross-sectional and longitudinal data on nurses to provide a detailed investigation of the retention and turnover behaviour of nurses and inform the policy debate.

目前，全世界都存在护士短缺的问题。在一些公营医疗系统，包括澳大利亚、英国和加拿大的医疗系统中，这种短缺尤为严重。鉴于护士是提供医疗保健和健康的关键投入，必须通过增加进入这一职业的离校生人数和/或改善受训护士的留用情况来解决这一问题，这一点至关重要。该项目将使用高质量的护士横截面和纵向数据，提供护士的保留和流动行为的详细调查，并告知政策辩论。
