摘要

Background: The older adult population in Canada is increasing, and many will require care within an acute geriatric unit (AGU) or long-term care facility (LTCF). However, the nursing workforce is not growing at the same pace as the population is aging. New graduate nurses may be able to fill this gap; therefore, it is important to understand their intentions of working in gerontological care settings (i.e., AGU or LTCF). Aim: To examine if nursing education and personal attitudes toward older adults influence newly registered nurses'(RNs) intentions to work in a gerontological care setting. Method: Nurses (n=1,103) who registered with the College of Nurses of Ontario for the first time in 2018 were invited to complete a questionnaire. Results: The majority of participants (n = 181) reported a positive attitude toward older adults. However, only 14% reported an intention to work in a gerontological care setting. Participants who completed multiple geriatric focused clinical placements were more likely to report an intention to work in these settings. Conclusion: This study provides some information regarding the attitudes and intentions of newly RNs toward a career in gerontological care settings. Further research is needed to understand nurses' intentions regarding working in AGUs or LTCFs.
