During the COVID-19 pandemic, the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) (2022) estimated over 100,000 registered nurses left the profession and predicted that another 800,000 nurses would follow them by 2027. The top reasons reported for leaving were burnout, feeling undervalued, and a high patient-to-nurse ratio.
800,000 RNs and 184,000 LPNs/LVNs indicated they are likely to leave nursing by 2027 — roughly 20% of total licensed nurses in the U.S. Half of survey respondents reported feeling emotional fatigue or burnout multiple times per week, with over one-fourth reporting that they felt “at the end of their rope.”
