Nurse Manager Retention: What are the factors that influence their intentions to stay?Brown, Pamela Jean 06 1900 (has links)
Recruiting well-qualified nurses into managerial positions is problematic because of the challenges associated with the role, the nursing shortage and the attraction of other opportunities within nursing. Leadership behavior is known to influence staff nurse retention and ultimately patient care outcomes, which makes it critical that we better understand what factors influence Nurse Managers decisions to leave or stay in management positions. The results of a systematic literature review suggest that Nurse Manager retention is a multifactoral issue. A primary analysis of data from Nurse Managers was conducted as the second part of this study. Job satisfaction, work-life balance, empowerment and the ability to ensure quality patient care were identified to be influential retention factors. These findings should enable administrators to develop strategies in the areas of leadership development and creation of healthy work environments that will increase job satisfaction and ultimately retention. Further research to develop sound theoretical models of Nurse Manager retention is required.

Valuating a continuous professional development programme for Critical Care nurse practitioners in aprivate hospital in GautengLategan, Karin January 2013 (has links)
In a hospital environment the focus is on quality patient care. One of the important factors to improve the quality of patient care is the implementation of a continuous professional development programme. In a continuous professional development programme of a hospital three stakeholders namely management, clinical facilitators and the nurse practitioners are identified as partners. When the stakeholders reach a point where it is believed that the continuous professional development programme does not serve its purpose to improve the quality of patient care it is time to evaluate and refine the programme.
This study evaluate the critical care and high care units in a private hospital in Gauteng’s continuous professional development programme and the conclusions and recommendations are therefore limited to this specific clinical setting. The refinements recommended cannot be utilised in other clinical setting but the evaluation and research methodology can be utilised to evaluate similar continuous professional development programmes. Evaluation of a continuous professional development has the potential to negatively influence the nurse practitioners attitude towards continuous professional development. The objective of the research approach chosen namely a 4-D Appreciative Inquiry approach was to gain the collaboration of all the stakeholders in an effort to ensure that the evaluation of the continuous professional development programme of the critical care and high care units in the private hospital in Gauteng does not negatively affect the delivery of quality patient care. The Appreciative Inquiry research approach with its positive approach lends it to be the most appropriate research methodology of the study.
The study utilised a Focus Group Inquiry as data a collection mechanism. From the study In-service training emerged as the element that form an important element of an effective continuous professional development programme but that it is of the at most importance that an effective Workplace learning environment exists. The supportive role of Management for a continuous professional development programme also emerged as one of the main themes required for the implementation of a continuous professional development programme. These findings were utilised in the refinement for the continuous professional development programme for the critical care and high care units in the private hospital in Gauteng. The research recommends that a steering committee be appointed to implement a pilot continuous professional development programme that incorporate the refinement elements identified. Due to the continuous improvement nature of the Appreciative Inquiry methodology it is also recommended that the pilot continuous professional development programme been re-evaluation to ensure long-term success and improvement. / Dissertation (MCur)--University of Pretoria, 2013. / gm2014 / Nursing Science / unrestricted

Perceptions of the nurses' continuing professional development and its contribution to quality patient careLiphosa, Winnifred Matsidiso 03 October 2013 (has links)
Aim: The aim of the study is to explore the perceptions of the nurses’ CPD and its
contribution to quality patient care in the Gauteng province of the Republic of South
Africa.
Significance of the study: The significance of the study is to highlight the
importance of CPD as one of the contributing factors to the quality of patient care
through on-going competence. The researcher hopes the recommendations from the
study may serve as a motivation to health institutions that are not actively involved in
continuing professional development.
Method and data analysis: Quantitative descriptive explorative design was used to
achieve the objectives of the study.
The study involved registered professional nurses (n =105) and enrolled nurses
(n=56) employed in a state health institution. Data was collected by means of a
structured questionnaire.A total of 200 questionnaire were distributed and 162
completed questionnaires were returned, giving a response rate of 162/200=81%.
Statistical analysis was conducted using the SAS software version 9.3.The internal
and external validity was enhanced by selecting a large homogenous sample.
Ethical issues: An information leaflet indicating the key elements of the study such
as the research title, the purpose of the study, voluntary participation and when to
withdraw from the study was distributed to all the participants. Results: The study found that nurses participate in CPD activities to maintain their
professional competence, thereby contributing to quality patient care. The findings
are consistent with the findings from other studies / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)
