Although most inactive nurses enrolled in a registered nurse refresher course can safely and effectively be returned to active practice on completion of such a course, there is a small group for which this is not the case. The authors explored factors that could predict successful course completion and transition back to active practice. Although not statistically significant, three factors seemed to suggest areas for further study. The age of the nurse and the number of children could be predictors of success. Nurses who had practiced in an acute care setting (i.e., hospital) were more likely to be successful than nurses who had practiced in other areas. Time in nursing practice immediately following graduation and time away from the practice of nursing were not found to be strong predictors. Other approaches may be necessary to help these nurses successfully return to practice.
尽管大多数参加注册护士进修课程的非在职护士在完成该课程后能够安全、有效地重返工作岗位，但仍有一小部分护士并非如此。作者探讨了能够预测课程顺利完成以及成功回归工作岗位的因素。虽然这些因素在统计学上并不显著，但有三个因素似乎表明了值得进一步研究的领域。护士的年龄和子女数量可能是成功的预测因素。曾在急症护理环境（即医院）工作过的护士比在其他领域工作过的护士更有可能取得成功。毕业之后立即从事护理工作的时间以及离开护理工作岗位的时间并未被发现是有力的预测因素。可能需要采取其他方法来帮助这些护士成功回归工作岗位。
