Dual-role nursing allows an individual to spend part of their working hours between two different clinical specialty settings, which the project hypothesized would improve engagement and reduce burnout, according to the press release.
The program did just that and revealed seven key benefits:
- Increased reported job satisfaction
- Reduced turnover rates among nurses
- Increased nurse confidence, which in turn helped enhance care quality
- Attracted a younger generation of nurses to new and open roles
- Supported the needs of the healthcare system
- Improved staffing flexibility
- Promoted collaboration and relationship growth
