Reconfiguring retention: A qualitative exploration of the lived experiences of female nurses in an arid rural setting in Turkana County, Kenya.

Apparent workforce stability may therefore mask dissatisfaction and intentions to migrate, highlighting the need for gender-sensitive policies and stronger rural career pathways to support long-term retention.
