Abstract
Retaining mid-career nurses is a priority to address the nursing shortage exacerbated by COVID-19. Nurses are more likely to stay if they feel valued. This scoping review revealed a variety of intrapersonal, interpersonal, and external factors that influence how mid-career nurses feel valued. Nursing professional development practitioners can influence satisfaction and retention by implementing mentoring and professional development programs for nurses and managers. More research is needed to understand the impact of the mid-career nurse–nurse manager relationship.
