“…Such a profit based formula contributes to professional dissatisfaction and nurses leaving their profession at an alarming rate.

(Title: An exploration of nurses attrition: a grounded theory study, 2014) with a project approval number (no. 5/4/3861). AbstractObjective: Clinical nursing is the most important feature of the nursing profession and similar to the global community. The study objective was to identify and describe the challenges and why Iranian nurses leave their profession. Methods: Qualitative methods were applied to describe nursing practice challenges through in-depth and semi-structured interview of 16 Iranian nurses with 2 to 15 years of work experience in 2014 by asking: "Please tell me about your challenges at work and why nurses are leaving the nursing profession?" Obtained data were analyzed using conventional content analysis. Results: Analyzed data revealed four thematic categories as 1) unfriendly workplace, 2) lack of opportunity for professional advancement, 3) work stress, and 4) ethical issues. Conclusion: Recognizing nursing challenges in clinical setting can help faculty in academia and administrators in healthcare institutions to develop policies to reduce pitfalls and prevent attrition.

Elements of structure included skill mix, staffing levels, time, and workload.…”

As health care organizations strive to create a unique identity within today's competitive arena, quality has emerged as a focal point for organizational identity. Quality and its continual improvement has become the guiding framework for organizational planning and evaluation.Nowhere is competition for services and service line development more intense than in women's services. Health care lenders recognize the power of women as health care consumers who make many of the decisions about the family's health care plan or where the family will receive care. Women often shop around for quality health care services for themselves and their families. They relate stories about the quality of care they have received to others in their network of friends and family.Quality is an illusive concept. There are many approaches to defining quality, including:(1) a transcendent approach where quality is undefined but evident when it exists; (2) a productbased approach where the product is measured by the quantity of its component attributes; (3) a user-based approach where the measure of quality is its ability to satisfy the customer; (4) a manufacturing-based approach where quality is conformance to standards; and (5) a valuebased approach where quality is excellence at an affordable price. The purpose of this study was to identify definitions of quality in women's health care from the multiple stakeholders of the women's service line. Listening to the voice of women and their providers provided the foundation for uncovering the way women describe and evaluate quality in their health care services.

“…Many of the criteria considered in developing the QNCS-HARIC were based on three suppositions: 1) the complex, subjective, and multi-dimensional concept of the quality of nursing care makes it difficult to define and measure (Attree 1993(Attree , 1996Hogston 1995b;Idvall & Rooke 1998;Kunaviktikul et al 2001;Norman, Redfern, Tomalin & Oliver 1992), 2) there is a lack of definition and evaluation of the concept of quality of nursing care in children (Leino-Kilpi & Vuorenheimo 1999;Pelander 2008;Suhonen & Valimaki 2003), and 3) acute respiratory infection is the major cause of childhood mortality (MDGs-Indonesia 2008).…”

Introduction: Acute respiratory infection in children leads to high morbidity and mortality. This is probably due to a lack of quality of care and no quality control. The Quality of Nursing Care for Hospitalized Ari Children (QNCS-HARIC) instrument is expected to be a potential tool for improving the quality of nursing practice with an approach more genuinely focused on parental involvement, especially in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to develop a scale of QNCS-HARIC in Indonesia. Methods: Development of the QNCS-HARIC refers to a literature review, expert panel meeting, experts' review, and pilot study. Results: Four dimensions and 79 items were generated: 1) the physical needs of ARI children (36 items); 2) the psychological needs of ARI children and their families (26 items); 3) the socio-cultural needs of ARI children and their families (10 items) and 4) the spiritual needs of ARI children and their families (7 items). The validity was approved by five experts yielding a content validity index equalling .96. After performing the CVI, the QNCS-HARIC consisted of 78 items (deleting 2 items from the dimension on the physical needs of ARI children and an additional 1 item from the dimension on the physical needs of ARI children). The reliability was tested with 30 pediatric nurses yielding an alpha Cronbach's coefficient of the overall QNCS-HARIC 77 items of .94 and each of the dimensions equalled .94, .87, .79, and .73, respectively. Conclusion:To improve the quality of nursing care delivery, pediatric nurses need to be equipped with a quality instrument which should be psychometrically tested, sensitive, specific, accurate, objective, and feasible.
