PROVO, Utah, June 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- A new study from Crucial Learning and the American Organization for Nursing Leadership (AONL) shows that employee rounding—a common practice intended to help nurse managers connect to their staff with regularity and purpose—has no effect on whether nurses were likely to quit their jobs within the next three years. But while employee rounding isn't a driver of retention, the study identified leadership practices that do improve retention for burned out nurses.

Key Points: 
  • But while employee rounding isn't a driver of retention, the study identified leadership practices that do improve retention for burned out nurses.
  • Researchers found that widely adopted practices intended to improve connection and reduce turnover do little to achieve these goals.
  • Specifically, when it came to employee rounding, the practice seemed so irrelevant that employees often didn't seem to know it had happened.
  • Results showed that nurse managers in these surprisingly high retention areas were unusually effective at creating connection by offering three things: care, growth and help.
