The Exit Risk Index™ is designed to give organizations earlier visibility into patterns that may indicate a clinician is at risk of leaving. It is not a prediction about any individual; it is a signal that prompts leaders to ask better questions and offer support sooner.
What the index measures
The index combines longitudinal engagement data, alignment information, and expressed sentiment to identify cohort-level patterns of risk. It is most useful when viewed as a trend over time rather than a single number. A rising risk index in a unit or cohort suggests that leaders should investigate underlying causes.
How nurse managers use it
In this webinar, nurse managers describe how they use the index in practice:
- Review risk trends in monthly leadership meetings rather than reacting to individual scores.
- Pair risk signals with unit-level context such as staffing changes, leadership transitions, or patient population shifts.
- Use the signal to start supportive conversations, not punitive ones.
- Track whether interventions are associated with risk reduction over time.
