Analysis of generational traits and intergenerational dynamics in the nursing workforce in Italy
Generational differences among Italian nurses influence perceptions of key aspects of nursing practice, particularly adaptability, patient safety and intergenerational dynamics. These findings emphasise the importance of fostering collaboration through mentoring and knowledge sharing to bridge generational gaps. Promoting multigenerational teamwork can enhance patient care quality and support workforce cohesion in an ageing healthcare system.
