METEOR research on the scale and reasons behind the exodus of nurses and physicians from European hospitals was recently featured in Hospital Healthcare Europe, a website providing hospital managers with insights on best practices in clinical care and specialist services.
The article discusses findings from a survey conducted by METEOR researchers among staff of eight hospitals in four countries. The survey revealed that 9% of doctors and nearly 14% of nurses declared their intention to leave their profession, citing low job satisfaction, growing depersonalisation, and emotional exhaustion as the primary factors influencing their decisions.
The survey also showed that a significant share of healthcare professionals is dissatisfied with their current employer, with 16.3% of doctors and 8.4% of nurses considering leaving their current workplace.
Factors such as ineffective management systems, conflicts, understaffing, and a lack of work-life balance contribute to these decisions.
