~ 17.5 percent of newly-licensed RNs leave their first nursing job within the first year and 33.5% leave within two years…my services can help to fix this.

There was NO reduction in claims in a matched group of 22 hospitals that DID NOT implement stress prevention activities. (Journal of Applied Psychology)
