New ANA/OJIN CE: Integrating Generational Perspectives in Nursing

Although nurses from four different generations work closely together, tension may occur as the different generational perspectives result in misinterpretation and misunderstanding. Complete this new independent study module to learn to create integrated and collegial relationships with colleagues on your team from other generations. You will also learn to appreciate the diverse points of view, leverage the strengths, and value the differences in colleagues from various generations.
