“…Interestingly, a documented job resource is the display of transformational leadership from nurses' superiors (e.g., Broetje et al, 2020 ; Gatti et al, 2020 ). The impact of job demands and job resources on quality of care and nurses' chronic fatigue has also been demonstrated (e.g., LeGal et al, 2019 ; Van Bogaert et al, 2018 ). Furthermore, a number of nursing demands and resources, or lack of resources, and the resulting high strain have been associated with intentions to leave the work setting and/or profession (e.g., Hognestad Haaland et al, 2020 ; Moloney et al, 2018 ; Van der Heijden et al, 2019 ).…”

Aim This study aims to examine, through the lens of the Job Demands‐Resources model, the influence of caring for COVID‐19 patients on nurse's perception of chronic fatigue, quality of care, satisfaction at work and intention to leave their organisation and the profession. Background Studies have examined how fear of COVID‐19 contributes to the mental, physical and work adjustment among nurses. To date, few studies have been conducted examining how caring for patients with COVID‐19 contributes to work outcomes among nurses. Methods This is a cross‐sectional survey involving 1705 frontline nurses and licensed practical nurses in Quebec, Canada. From these, 782 reported caring for COVID‐19 patients. Results High chronic fatigue, poor quality of care, lower work satisfaction and higher intention to leave their organisation were found for nurses caring for COVID‐19 patients. Poorly prepared and overwhelmed nurses showed higher turnover intention than those well prepared and in control. Conclusions There is an urgent need to provide support to nurses during the pandemic, with a long‐term strategy to increase their retention. Implications for Nursing Management Nurse administrators play an important role in supporting their nurses during a pandemic in the form of education, training and policy development to positively impact quality of care and retention.

“…This confirms previous findings that show a positive impact on staff job outcomes and assessed quality of care by balanced work characteristics, as described previously. However, mechanisms that support continuous improvement efforts structurally need to be aligned between hospital and team governance level 27. Among the organizational variables especially communication proved to be significantly associated with all outcomes.…”

Objectives This cross‐sectional study examines first whether emergency physicians differ from a comparison group of surgeons, more specifically general surgeons and orthopedic surgeons, in terms of job and organizational characteristics and second to what extent these characteristics are determinants of professional well‐being outcomes in emergency physicians. Methods Belgian emergency physicians (n = 346) were invited to participate in this study. Forty‐three percent of the eligible participants completed a questionnaire. The survey instrument contained 48 questions on determinants (personal characteristics, job conditions [Job Demand Control Support], organizational and environmental work conditions) as well as 39 questions on outcomes (job satisfaction, turnover intention, subjective fatigue, psychological distress, work–home interference, work engagement) by means of the Leiden Quality of Work Questionnaire for Medical Doctors, the Checklist Individual Strength, the Brief Symptom Inventory, and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were used to examine the association between the determinants and each of the outcomes. Results Emergency physicians reported higher job demands, lower job control, and less adequate work conditions compared with the group of surgeons. High job demands increased turnover intention, subjective fatigue, psychological distress, work–home interference in emergency physicians, but lack of job control, lack of social support from the supervisor, and inadequate communication also contributed in an unfavorable way to some of these outcomes. Conclusion Emergency medicine departments must reduce the constant exposure to high job demands by allowing emergency physicians to have enough time for both physical and mental recovery. Work motivation and work conditions might be improved by increasing job control over job demands by giving emergency physicians more decision latitude and autonomy, improving good communication and teamwork and adequate social support from the supervisor and providing good material resources. These interventions can improve professional well‐being outcomes in emergency physicians.
