Abstract
There are a number of factors that contribute to the nursing shortage: Staffing shortages are impacting the stress level of nurses thus impacting job satisfaction. The change in demographics requires a need for more nurses to care for the aging population. A significant sector of the nursing workforce is approaching retirement age. Even though the causes of nursing shortages are multi-faceted in nature, there is growing evidence of the impact of low staffing levels on health care delivery and outcomes. The public health significance of organizations to retain nurses is twofold: by focusing on nursing leadership styles as a recommendation to alleviate some of the problems that are emerging as a result of nursing shortages and job satisfaction.
