; enjoy increased nurse retention and recruitment rates; and report higher rates of job satisfaction among nurses.

"Nurses seek employment at Magnet-designated hospitals because they know that patient care is a top priority for the organization," said Tim Smith, CEO of Sharp Memorial Hospital. "This designation provides us an excellent tool for nationally recruiting and retaining the best nurses in this time of a nursing shortage."

The Magnet Recognition Program recognizes excellence in nursing management, philosophy and practices; adherence to standards for improving the quality of patient care; leadership of the nurse administrator in supporting professional development of every nurse for continued growth and development; and incorporating cultural and ethnic diversity of patients and their family.

Sharp Memorial Hospital has been serving the San Diego community for more than 50 years. The hospital is known for its clinical excellence in emergency and trauma care; cardiac care; surgery; stroke care; orthopaedics; and rehabilitation, and will open a new patient care tower in fall 2008.
