About 13% of newly qualified nurses and midwives leave hospital work within six years

The early years of working life differ for newly qualified nurses and midwives working in hospitals and comparable graduates working in other sectors. Louise Schubert Paaske, a Ph.D. student in health economics at the Danish Centre for Health Economics (DaCHE) at the University of Southern Denmark, and her colleagues have used Danish national registers to follow the graduates' health trajectories over their first six years in employment. The study is published in the journal Communications Health.
