BACKGROUND: It is unknown whether the stress of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had a particular impact on inpatient and long-term care (LTC) nurses, had an effect on nurses' choice of employment settings.
OBJECTIVE: Determine whether the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to changes in nurses' choice of employment setting.
METHODS: This study used data from the 2018 and 2022 National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses to conduct a difference-in-difference analysis. We constructed a state-level measure of COVID-19 caseload, defined as COVID-19 cases per hospital bed; High versus Low COVID-19 states were defined as those above versus below the median, respectively. Logistic regression models were used to estimate the effect of exposure to High COVID-19 caseload (vs. Low) and time (2022 vs. 2018) on nurse employment choices across inpatient, LTC, outpatient, and nonclinical settings.
RESULTS: From 2018 to 2022, the size of the US nursing workforce grew from 3.27 to 3.57 million nurses; however, RN FTEs increased in outpatient settings and decreased in all other settings. In adjusted analyses, nurses were less likely to work in LTC settings in 2022 than in 2018; yet, those exposed to High COVID-19 caseloads were 0.9% (95% CI: 0.3-1.5) more likely to work in LTC than those exposed to Low COVID-19 caseloads. Differences between High versus Low COVID-19 caseload exposure were not statistically significant for the likelihood of working in inpatient, outpatient, and nonclinical settings.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that exposure to High COVID-19 caseload was not associated with changes in nurses' employment settings.
