“Is the Grass Really Greener? Why Nurses Keep Switching Units”

Is the grass really greener when nurses switch units? 🌱 In this video, we’ll explore why so many nurses transfer to new units or hospitals in search of better working conditions, only to find themselves facing the same challenges and feeling just as unhappy.

We’ll break down the real reasons behind constant job changes, how psychology (hedonic adaptation) keeps resetting our happiness back to baseline, and most importantly—what nurses can actually do to raise their baseline satisfaction at work.

💡 You’ll learn:

Why nurses think a new unit will solve burnout and stress

The hidden psychology behind job-hopping and dissatisfaction

How to “water the grass where you stand” through mindset, gratitude, and purpose

Practical tips to boost your baseline happiness as a nurse
