Retention of Nurses in a Rural Environment: The Impact of Job Satisfaction, Resilience, Grit, Engagement, and Rural Fit

Resilience, Moral Distress, and Workplace Engagement in Emergency Department Nurses

“…These results support the hypothesis that a positive relationship exists between resilience and workplace engagement. A similar finding occurred in studies of Chinese hemodialysis nurses (Cao & Chen, 2019) and rural health nurses (Sellers, 2019) in which nurses with higher resilience had greater workplace engagement.…”

“…Nurse managers and educators can support nursing resilience by clearly outlining and making accessible professional development opportunities (Sellers, 2019), encouraging nurses to care for themselves by providing debriefings after critical events, and creating a break room environment that is homey and comfortable (Wei et al, 2019). Nurses can build their own resilience by seeking out professional development opportunities (Sellers, 2019), building relationships with colleagues for peer support and taking part in religious practices (Hsieh et al, 2016), verbalizing patient care and work environment issues that impinge on one's professional integrity, and engaging with their colleagues and coworkers so as to see oneself as part of a bigger community (Rushton, 2016). Since resilience is positively correlated with age and tenure as a nurse, facilities that retain nurses with greater chronological age and increased nursing tenure could develop a nursing pool with higher resilience, maintaining a greater volume of nurses with increased workplace engagement.…”

A meta‐analysis on predictors of turnover intention of hospital nurses in South Korea (2000–2020)

“…Several studies have reported predictors of nurses’ turnover intention; however, because research has been limited to investigating the influences and relationships among a few variables, the factors that affect nurses’ turnover intention have not been comprehensively identified (Brewer et al., 2012 ; Deery et al., 2011 ; Fallatah et al., 2017 ; Fasbender et al., 2019 ; Foster et al., 2020 ; Galletta et al., 2019 ; Guo et al., 2018 ; Havva et al., 2019 ; Kim et al., 2019 ; Sellers et al., 2019 ; Mark & Smith, 2012 ; Mun et al., 2018 ; Oyeleye et al., 2013 ; Perreira et al., 2018 ; Simone et al., 2018 ; Wang et al., 2017 ; Yun & Kim, 2012 ; Zhao et al., 2018 ). Investigating and managing only some predictors are not effective in reducing nurses’ turnover, because its causes are very complex (Brewer et al., 2012 ).…”

Job Satisfaction, Grit And Mindsets Of Teachers

“…Probably the diversity of the research cohorts is the reason for the differing results regarding the relationship between grit and mindset. Job satisfaction of nurses demonstrated a moderately positive correlation with grit (r = 0.3; p <0.001) in the research of Sellers et al (2019). Findings are contradictory.…”

“…Strength positive correlation between Grit and Mindset score (r = 0,527; p < 0,01) was detected in Caucasian (UK, Greek) and Asian (Chinese, Arabic) undergraduate and postgraduate students (Barbouta et al, 2020). A weak correlation relationship between Grit and mindset (r = 0.2; p <0.05) was found in Australian physiotherapy students (Calo et al, 2019) or Korean office workers (r = 0, 32; p <0.01) in Lee (2018).Job satisfaction of nurses demonstrated a moderately positive correlation with grit (r = 0,3; p < 0,001) in the research of Sellers et al (2019). Findings are contradictory.…”
