This study aimed to identify the scientific literature that deals with retirement in nursing available in the national and international literature, identifying characteristics discussed in published studies about this subject. This is an integrative literature review based on the data survey from the literature present in the Pubmed, CINAHL, and LILACS electronic databases, published between January of 2008 and December of 2012, in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. The results found over 36 selected articles demonstrate that the lack of nursing professionals is a global concern. The reduction in the number of these professionals can be explained, in particular, by the number of retirements with repercussions in the nursing education and practice. Mentoring programs and volunteering were pointed as strategies to retain nursing professionals in organizations. The determining factors that complicate the permanence in the workforce in nursing are related to social and personal issues, workload, and illnesses among workers besides inadequate working conditions. A reduced number of studies in this area was identified on a national level; leaving the study over the matter to researchers to investigate the characteristics of nursing retirement in the Brazilian context.Downloads
