2024 State of Nursing Survey Finds Nurses Happier and More Satisfied vs. Previous Years - Do You Agree? (With Dr. Wali Khan, DNAP, CRNA and Dr. Tina Loarte-Rodriguez, DNP)

For the past few years, Nurse.org has released its annual State of Nursing report, looking at various trends in nursing, including salary, career goals, and what nurses think about the future of their profession. In the past, the reports revealed some eye-opening information, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. With the arrival of Nurses Week—a time when healthcare institutions and other healthcare professionals are celebrating nurses —we wanted to go beyond celebrations and shed some light on the real issues nurses face every day. Our survey found that, overall, nurses' conditions have improved since previous reports in 2021 and 2022. But despite this, the nursing profession still has a very long way to go.In this episode of the Nurse Converse Podcast, Dr. Wali Khan and Dr. Tina Loarte-Rodriguez discuss the 2024 State of Nursing Report while highlighting its key themes including job satisfaction, education, and support in the nursing profession. Tune in for an insightful conversation on the current state of nursing between two professionals from diverse nursing backgrounds.>>Read the full report on Nurse.org Jump Ahead to Listen: [02:30] State of Nursing Report.[06:29] Nurse demographics insights.[10:45] Malcolm X's Childhood.[14:00] Nursing advocating for change.[15:48] Higher job satisfaction with education.[19:32] Nursing pipeline diversity and growth.[23:43] Nursing unit profit prioritization.[27:56] Nurse Job Satisfaction[32:33] Nurses' salaries and financial struggles.[37:06] Nurses having multiple jobs.[45:02] Nurse career transitions.[47:54] Nurses leaving the bedsideConnect with Wali on social media:Instagram: @wali_khannConnect with Tina on LinkedInFor more information:Full transcript and videos: Nurse.org/podcastJoin our newsletter: nurse.orgInstagram: @nurse_orgTikTok: @nurse.orgFacebook: @nurse.orgYouTube: Nurse.org
