To prevent the adverse noneconomic and economic impacts of nurse turnover and retain nurses, healthcare organizations, nurse managers, and hospital staff nurses need to develop and implement prevention strategies and policies to address nurse turnover. Efforts to address nurse turnover can increase hospital competency to improve the quality of nursing care services and patient safety.
Managing nursing unit turnover within appropriate levels at the nursing unit is critical to delivering high-quality patient care.
Hospitals need to monitor the levels of temporary nurse use and maintain a level of approximately 15% to ensure both nurse and patient safety outcomes. The temporary nurse use to manage nursing shortfall may provide both benefit and harm to nurse and patient safety depending on the level of the use.
Turnover is inevitable in the process of employment, but high turnover can be prevented. Through reviewing ten articles, significant contributing factors for newly licensed registered nurses' turnover included personal factors of health status; work environment factors of physical exhaustion, emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, occupational injuries, income, intent to stay, job satisfaction, and peer support; and hospital factors of hospital size, location, and unionization. Most existing s
Given high demands and workload in the ICU, nurse staffing levels should be closely monitored to prevent adverse nurse outcomes.
Efforts to improve working conditions should be made in various health-care work settings to ensure patient safety and improve patient quality of outcomes.
Study findings support the importance of monitoring and regulating nurse work schedules and adverse scheduling practices to improve nurse well-being and health and to prevent adverse patient outcomes.
<b>Objectives:</b> This study examined the impact of nurse staffing, working hours, mandatory overtime, and turnover on nurse outcomes in acute care hospitals. Previous studies have focused on the single characteristics of sub-optimal nurse staffing but have not considered them comprehensively. <b>Methods:</b> Data were collected in July-September 2022 using convenience sampling and an online survey (<i>N</i> = 397). For the analysis, 264 nurses working as staff nurses at 28 hospitals met the in
Associations between comprehensive nurse staffing characteristics and patient falls and pressure ulcers were examined using negative binomial regression modeling with hospital- and time-fixed effects. A convenience sample was collected from 35 nursing units in 3 hospitals. Rates of patient falls and injury falls were found to be greater with higher temporary registered nurse staffing levels but decreased with greater levels of licensed practical nursing care hours per patient day. Pressure ulcer
Nurse managers and health care institutes need to develop new managerial and policy strategies to reduce nurse turnover in each age group.
This cross-sectional study used quantitative survey data collected from registered nurses (RNs) who worked as staff nurses in medium-sized (300 beds or less) Korean hospitals. Data from 290 RNs were analyzed to examine the nature and prevalence of staff nurses' work hours, overtime, breaks, and related work conditions. The results showed that staff nurses working in medium-sized Korean hospitals worked 9.6 hours a day on average and had 1.5 breaks daily, including mealtime. The average number of
