“…28 Atefi et al state that supportive nursing management leads to increased job satisfaction in nurses. [29][30][31] Consistent with the results of the present study, other research results showed that there was a statistically significant relationship between leadership style and job satisfaction, and employees whose leadership style was tyrannical had less job satisfaction than those whose managerial style was participatory. 32 Since managers who improve group communication and promote positive emotions in the workplace, they lead to the reinforcement of effective activities in employees as well as improved job satisfaction.…”

Background: Job satisfaction is an important factor in health care settings. This concept is not a single factor; rather, it is the product of factors such as the conditions and relationships that govern the workplace, the organizational system of employment, and social, cultural, and economic factors. Therefore, awareness of its related factors is important for medical staff including nurses in special units and nursing managers. The aim of the present study was to investigate job satisfaction challenges in intensive care unit (ICU) nurses. Methods: This was a qualitative study using conventional content analysis approach. This study was performed in a general ICU of Amol City, Iran. Thirteen nurses employed in the ICU were recruited until data saturation was reached. Research data were collected through interviews, a focus group and field notes. Findings were analyzed using a conventional method. Results: According to data analysis, 6 themes including "nursing education", "organizational resources", "management", "multiple occupational stresses", "professional performance" and "professional identity" were developed. Conclusion: This study provided better and clearer understanding of job satisfaction challenges of nurses working in an ICU. The findings of this research can be helpful in developing management programs for understanding the factors affecting job satisfaction of nurses and job satisfaction promotion.

“…Many studies have investigated nurses’ wishes to leave their jobs in hospitals (e.g. Flinkman, Laine, Leino‐Kilpi, Hasselhorn, & Salanterä, ; Hasselhorn et al., ; Heinen et al., ; Josephson, Lindberg, Voss, Alfredsson, & Vingård, ; Jourdain & Chênevert, ; Lavoie‐Tremblay, Paquet, Marchionni, & Drevniok, ; Li, Galatsch, Siegrist, Müller, & Hasselhorn, ; Liu et al., ; Ma, Lee, Yang, & Chang, ; Stordeur & D'Hoore, ; Van der Heijden et al., ; Yıldız, Ayhan, & Erdoğmuş, ). Fewer studies have been conducted on nurses’ wishes to leave long‐term care for older people (Bostick, Rantz, Flesner, & Riggs, ; Castle, ; McKnight, ; Rosen, Stiehl, Mittal, & Leana, ; Tummers, Groeneveld, & Lankhaar, ; Wiener, Squillace, Anderson, & Khatutsky, ).…”

Aims This study investigates the prevalence of nurses’ wishes to leave work in elderly care services and aims to explain differences between younger and older nurses. Background Health‐and‐care services, and specifically elderly care services, experience problems recruiting and retaining nurses. Method A nationwide survey among nurses in Norway with 4,945 nurses aged 20–73 (mean age = 41.8), 95% female. Structural equation modelling was used, analysing the whole sample as well as analysing younger and older nurses as separate groups. Results Of the nurses surveyed, 25% wanted to work outside elderly care services and 25% were uncertain. The wish to leave was much more frequent among younger nurses. Reported working conditions were a strong predictor of the wish to leave, and a much stronger predictor among younger nurses than older nurses in nursing homes. Conclusions Working conditions are a major predictor of nurses’ wishes to leave elderly care services, especially among younger nurses in nursing homes. Implications for Nursing Management Attempts to reduce turnover in elderly care services need to address the working conditions for younger nurses, for instance by reducing the time young nurses work in isolation.

“…In addition, most importantly there is growing evidence of the association between health care workers' job satisfaction and the outcome of health care. Stress and illness contribute to poor clinical judgment, risking harm to patients; stressed workers are vulnerable to injury and have a higher absenteeism rate [14]. …”

Background. Workplace turnover is destructive to nursing and patient outcomes as it leads to losing competent and qualified nurses. However, developments of coping strategies demand a clear understanding of workplace variables that either motivate nurses to remain employed or lead them to leave their current jobs. Objective. This study was designed toassess factors influencing job satisfaction and intention to turnover among nurses in Sidama zone public health facilities, in Southern Ethiopia. Method. Cross-sectional study design was carried out on 278 nurses using both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods from May 12 to June 05, 2010. Result. A total of 242 nurses were interviewed giving a response rate of 87%. Nearly two-third (68.6%) of the participants were female, and the mean age was 28 (±6.27) years for both sexes. All job satisfaction subscale except benefit and salary subscale were significant predictors of overall job satisfaction. Satisfactions with work environment and group cohesion (AOR: 0.25 [95% CI: 0.12, 0.51]), single cohesion (AOR: 2.56 [95% CI: 1.27, 5.13]), and working in hospital (AOR: 2.19 [95% CI: 1.12, 4.30]) were the final significant predictors of anticipated turnover of Sidama zone nurses. Conclusions. More than any factors managers should consider the modification of working environment and group cohesions rather than trying to modify nurses to retain and maintain more experienced nurses for the organizations.
