CONT

Le concept des hôpitaux-aimants a été appliqué aux États-Unis et semble avoir donné lieu à une innovation avantageuse sur le plan des politiques. Un hôpital-aimant se définit comme un hôpital réputé pour recruter et retenir des infirmières grâce à des politiques d'emploi progressives et au soutien organisationnel qu'il accorde à la profession infirmière. Cette formule n'est pas encore très répandue au Canada.

OBS

hôpital aimant : terme retenu par le réseau Entraide Traduction Santé.
