Abstract
Nineteen percent of the nation’s nursing workforce was 65 years of age or older as of 2020, making this the largest age group within the nursing profession. One-fifth of nurses are likely to retire by 2027, setting the stage for a dramatic transition in which the most experienced nurses leave the healthcare profession and recently graduated nurses begin taking their place.
