These nurse managers were burnt out. Then their hospital gave them a 4-day workweek
Briefly

Since the pandemic, AtlantiCare Hospital and other healthcare facilities have implemented a four-day workweek for nurse managers to combat turnover rates, resulting in increased job satisfaction and no negative impact on patient care.
With the shift to four-day workweeks, nurse managers at AtlantiCare report feeling more recharged, displaying greater job satisfaction, and maintaining better work-life balance while overseeing large teams and ensuring proper patient care.
Nurse managers like Danielle DiLella, overseeing 86 bedside nurses, emphasize being 'accountable 24/7,' managing administrative, clinical tasks, recruitment, scheduling, payroll, and ensuring quality care without breaks due to hospitals operating round the clock.
