dc.description.abstractAn analysis of current literature was conducted to better understand why nursing staff turnover remains high in the nursing home setting and the factors causing these high rates. Factors include wages below federal poverty levels for direct care workers, lack of benefits, and poor employee satisfaction and decreased emphasis on employee wellness. With this analysis, the severity of the effects of turnover and the impact on the healthcare system are discussed. An analysis of current strategies being implemented to improve high turnover rates, as well as how the nursing home care sector fairs currently, has also been discussed. Suggestions of potential policies to change the current state of the nursing home sector is critical in retaining and attracting potential long term care nursing staff in nursing homes. Keywords: long term care, turnover, high turnover rates, nursing home, nursing staff, direct care workers, healthcare
