| Abstract: | Findings from a study of nurse leavers at eight large hospitals in the National Health Service (NHS) of England and Wales are reported here. The study develops and extends an influential theory of employee turnover by describing how for some leavers a single, jarring event or shock triggers the decision to quit. By elaborating on the nature of shocks for this sample of 352 nurse leavers, the article allows for improved understanding of nursing turnover and thus offers an example of relevant management research. |
