Drennan, Vari, Coll Ferrer, Joel, Thurgate, Claire, Wu, Lihua, Halter, Mary and Alkan, Erkan (2025) Successful retention strategies for nurses in home visiting nursing services : a scoping review. Journal of Advanced Nursing, ISSN (print) 0309-2402 (In Press)
Abstract
This scoping review aims to identify successful strategies, and underpinning mechanisms, for retaining nurses in home visiting nursing services. The method followed Joanna Briggs Institute guidance. Two researchers independently screened and reviewed with disagreements resolved through discussion. This review identified noticeable few papers over a time when all countries have been trying to address the growing health needs of the older populations. The gap in evidence as to the most effective combinations of retention strategies for home visiting nursing requires urgent attention. Clinical leaders and managers require evidence to inform their strategies for retaining home visiting nurses in order to provide high quality care as more health care systems increase the provision of acute, chronic, and palliative care in patients’ own homes.
