▼ New graduate
nurse (NGN) burnout (poor engagement) leads to 33% annual turnover, costing organizations 82,000 to 88,000 per
nurse.
Nurse burnout is also correlated with adverse patient events, contributing to 440,000 deaths per year (the third leading cause of death in the United States). Kramer proposes a process of NGN engagement and burnout in her theory of new
nurse socialization, but the theory has limited empirical testing or support. The purpose of the preliminary study was to provide empirical support for Kramer’s theory of new
nurse socialization, specifically the existence of NGNs’ values mismatch (relationship between amount of leader empowering behaviors (LEBs) and level of organizational commitment) and phases of socialization (change in the amount of role satisfaction), with a secondary data analysis approach. This study did not support Kramer’s proposition that values mismatch leads to low NGN role satisfaction and the existence of three distinct phases of socialization.
In the second study, a new model for NGN engagement is proposed by incorporating propositions from Kramer’s theory with others from Kanter’s Theory of Structural Empowerment, Bandura’s self-efficacy work, and Newman’s Attitude-Engagement Model. Aims of this second study were to examine (a) the effects of personal characteristics (presence of previous healthcare work experience and type of degree completed) and organizational characteristics (amount of LEBs, magnet status, and size of hospital) on self-efficacy (level of self-efficacy), (b) the relationships among self-efficacy (level of self-efficacy), personal goal attainment (level of perceived skill mastery), and affective engagement (level of job satisfaction, amount of affective organizational commitment, and level of job involvement), and (c) the effects of affective engagement (level of job satisfaction, amount of affective organizational commitment, and level of job involvement) and self-efficacy (level of self-efficacy) on behavioral engagement (retention). A secondary data analysis was again completed. Results provide preliminary support the proposed model.

▼ Background: A surgical fire in the operating room (OR) is a devastating hazard that carries the weight of high morbidity and mortality. Through acknowledgment of fire risks among all OR team members, proper education, and training, as well as effective communication, a surgical fire in the OR is a preventable medical error. The addition of a fire risk assessment (FRA) checklist has been proven to increase awareness of potential fire risks and improve the quality and safety of patient care.
Purpose: The purpose of this project was to perform a needs assessment regarding surgical team members’ knowledge, awareness, and utilization rate of FRA checklist as a precautionary measure to prevent surgical fires. Moreover, this project attempted to gather data concerning potential barriers towards the implementation and adoption of the FRA checklist to the already established surgical timeout prior to every procedure being performed.
Setting: This project took place at a Level 1 trauma hospital in the greater Phoenix, Arizona metro area. The study included (N=16) participants, who were the members of the surgical team at this organization.
Method: An online survey was disseminated to participants. The survey consisted of two sections which examine 1) sociodemographic information, and 2) assessment of knowledge, practice, and attitudes related to FRA checklist during the surgical timeout.
Results: Majority of the respondents acknowledged that FRA is an appropriate tool and is necessary during the surgical timeout. Only 25% (N=16) of respondents acknowledged reviewing this current practice guideline on FRA checklist. The most important finding from this study is that half of the respondents (N=8) supported on the usefulness of the FRA checklist during the surgical timeout in their current clinical practice setting. Furthermore, 69% (N=11) of the participants agreed this gap exists in their current practice related to FRA checklist during the surgical timeout.
Conclusion: By surveying the surgical team members’ knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions, the researcher identified gaps in current practice. These findings were then used to determine the need for the FRA checklist during the surgical timeout at this healthcare organization. This Facility implemented a protocol for the FRA checklist effective February 7, 2018.

▼ Background: Ear, nose and throat complaints are very common and can cause disruption to patients’ lives. Many conditions are of a chronic nature and are not currently managed in a timely manner by general practitioners in the community. This may be due to a lack of specialised knowledge, necessary diagnostic equipment, or a lack of time for lengthy patient education about management of their condition. A
nurse-led model of care may be an effective alternative. Objectives: To examine the effectiveness of
nurse-led clinics on adults with chronic ear, nose and throat complaints. Inclusion Criteria: Participants: Adult patients, aged 18 and older, attending ear, nose and throat clinics, regardless of complaint. Interventions: Nurse–led care in general practice and acute care in which the
nurse was identified as taking a lead role in the care of the patients with chronic ear, nose and throat complaints. Comparator: General practitioner-led care, or ear, nose and throat consultant- led care, sometimes described as “standard care”. Outcomes: Service delivery outcomes- specifically patient satisfaction, waiting times, patient education booking queues, clinical and health outcomes, specifically, treatment times, treatment duration, course of treatment, self-treatment rates, change in presentation to clinic episodes, re-infection rates, prevention and cure, representation of patients to clinic for same complaint, levels of pain and discomfort and financial outcomes, specifically differences in costing, nurse–led clinic versus medical–led clinic. Studies: Any relevant quantitative studies published in English between 1980-2013 were considered. Search Strategy: A standardised three-step search strategy aimed to find both published and unpublished studies. Databases searched included PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane Library (CENTRAL), Scopus, Embase, MedNar and ProQuest Theses and Dissertations. Methodological quality: Assessed by two reviewers prior to inclusion in the review using standardised critical appraisal instruments from the Joanna Briggs Institute. Data Synthesis: Due to the methodological heterogeneity of the included studies, no statistical pooling was possible and all results are presented narratively. Results: The search identified 13,536 titles, of which 20 potentially relevant articles were retrieved. Of these 20, 17 were excluded following full-text review leaving three studies that were assessed for methodological quality and included in the review. Service delivery outcomes: Patient satisfaction was equal or higher and waiting times were shorter in
nurse led clinics. Clinical and health outcomes: Lower pain/discomfort levels were demonstrated in
nurse led clinics but other clinical/health outcomes were not addressed. Financial outcomes:
Nurse-led clinics were cost effective when compared with medical-led clinics. Conclusions: While all studies reported evidence of effectiveness of
nurse-led clinics on service delivery and clinical outcomes in adults with chronic ear, nose and throat complaints, most of the…

▼ Teacher identity is regarded as an important disposition when it comes to training would-be teachers, irrespective of the field of study. It is during the teaching practice experience that student
nurse-educators transit from their preconceived identity as a student to accepting the teacher identity. It is expected that for student to acquire this identify they require profound knowledge in
subject content, pedagogy and didactic knowledge, so as to perform their professions effectively. Although the focus of teaching is the student teachers, attention is sometimes focused more on the nursing facilitators rather than on the nursing student teachers who are becoming teachers. However, good nursing training should also take into consideration the perceptions of
nurse student teachers on the teacher identity. This study sought to describe student
nurse-educators’ perception of teacher identity with respect to the
subject matter, pedagogy, and didactic expertise at a School of Nursing, University of the Western Cape. The quantitative research approach, using the descriptive design was employed to guide the study. Data was collected by means of a self-administered questionnaire using a five point Likert scale. A list of students in master’s education programme was utilised as the sampling frame. The sample included the Masters students in nursing education programme who have completed their theoretical courses and teaching practice. The Statistical Package for Social Science software (SPSS) version 22 was used in the analysis of the survey. The study showed that teacher identity of student
nurse-educators is strongly related to their perceived level of knowledge of expertise in
subject matter (34%) followed by a grasp in didactics (33.28%). Teacher identity was less perceived in mastering knowledge related to pedagogy (33.12%). While the average median were 3.50 for
subject matter, 3.54 in didactics and 3.50 for pedagogy. The relation between knowledge of expertise in
subject matter, pedagogy and didactics were established after performing Kendall tau-c test. The link between gender and
subject matter, pedagogy and didactics revealed no significant association. No significant difference was found between males and females respondents perceptions with regards to
subject matter and didactics; while significant difference was found with didactics. The findings make a contribution to the body of knowledge in the nursing education field, and could contribute to improve the competency and quality in the practice of nursing education. With regards to the speculation on identity formation and development issues, it is hoped these findings will provide greater understanding of the difficulties student
nurse-educators experience as they construct individual identities as teacher.

▼ Statement of Problem:
The rising demand for advanced practice nurses has created a demand in graduate nursing programs with limited capacities. Cognitive variables such as GPA, GRE, and nursing experience have been explored as predictors of academic success. Intuition, a non-cognitive variable, also plays an important part of the nursing process (McEwan & Goldenberg 1999). There are no prior studies that examined intuition and/or years of clinical experience predicting academic success in graduate nursing school that have been published.
Sources of Data:
Data were collected using a convenience sample of all nursing students currently enrolled in a Master???s in Nursing Program at California State University, San Marcos. Students completed an online survey that included demographic data and The Smith (2007) 18-Item Intuition Instrument.
Conclusions Reached:
In this pilot study with an alpha level .20, the independent variables, high intuition score (p=.185) and years of experience as a RN (p=.031) were statistically significant predictors of the dependent variable, cumulative GPA.

▼ Community health nurses, like all other health
professionals, are being called to develop new clinical practices
based on collaboration and are faced with the demands of working
both interprofessionally and interorganizationally (D’Amour et al.,
2008). In Capital Health, public health nurses (PHNs), family
practice nurses (FPNs) and
nurse practitioners (NPs) are all
working in different aspects of breastfeeding support and
promotion. However, there is no formal structure for collaboration
of services, despite the strong desire of these nurses to work
together to improve breastfeeding outcomes. The purpose of this
study was to explore the roles of PHNs, FPNs and NPs who work in
breastfeeding support and promotion in Capital Health and the
structures and processes needed to support the development of
collaboration amongst these groups of nurses. Through the analysis
of semi-structured focus group interviews and follow-up focus group
interviews with a purposeful sample (n=10) of four PHNs, four FPNs
and two NPs, four major themes and sub themes were identified that
represented the nurses experience with collaboration between public
health and primary care in breastfeeding support and promotion. The
data generated revealed that participants had not experienced
active collaboration, rather developing or potential collaboration
(D’Amour et al., 2008). The first theme, Establishing Interpersonal
Relationships, provided an overview of the precipitators and
barriers to forming relationships and the outcomes of interpersonal
relationships between public health and primary care nurses. The
second major theme, The Organizational Context: Structures and
Processes in the Everyday Work Environment outlines the impact of
the organizational context of the nurses work environment on the
development of collaboration. Benefits of Collaboration was the
third theme identified in the study. Consistent with other studies
on collaboration between primary care and public health nurses, the
nurses interviewed believed that the development of collaboration
in breastfeeding support and promotion would benefit health care
professionals and the clients that they serviced. The last theme,
Development of New Practices Grounded in Collaboration, described
new initiatives or innovations that the participants explained were
needed for the development of collaboration between PHNs, FPNs and
NPs. Implications for practice include organizational support for
PHNs, FPNs and NPs to work to the full scope of their competencies
and providing them with opportunities to meet and establish
relationships to facilitate joint planning initiatives related to
breastfeeding support and promotion. Additionally, exploration of
flexible roles and funding structures as alternatives to
fee-for-service should be explored in primary care organizations.
The development of a communication infrastructure is necessary for
future development of collaboration between public health and
primary care in breastfeeding support and promotion. Future
research is needed in this area with a…

▼ The purpose of this study was to investigate
nurses’ roles within
nurse-led chemotherapy clinics. There has been
a rapid expansion and development of nursing roles and
responsibilities in oncology, but little understanding of how roles
are enacted and their impact on patient experiences and outcomes.
This was a two stage approach comprising a survey of UK oncology
specialist nurses followed by an ethnographic study of nurses’
roles in
nurse led chemotherapy clinics. Ethics approval was
obtained prior to each study; research and development approval was
obtained from each hospital site prior to Study 2. Study 1 used a
questionnaire survey to explore the scope of nurses’ roles. A
purposive sample of oncology specialist nurses perceived to be
undertaking
nurse-led clinics was obtained using snowball methods.
Data analysis included descriptive and inferential statistics.
Study 2 used ethnographic methods to explore nurses’ roles in
nurse-led chemotherapy clinics, which included clinical
observations, interviews with
nurse participants and studying
documentation (protocols0 for
nurse-led chemotherapy clinics.
Findings were coded and thematic analysis undertaken. In study 1,
103 completed questionnaires were received with a response rate of
64%, however analysis identified 79 (76.7%) nurses undertaking
nurse-led clinics, therefore statistical analysis was limited to
this sample of 79 nurses. An additional 12 (11.7%) nurses wanted to
undertake
nurse-led clinics, therefore findings from this group
were analysed separately. There was little congruence between
nurses’ titles and clinical roles, with significant differences in
practice between different groups of nurses, in relation to
history-taking (p=.036), assessing response to treatment (p=.033).
Although there was no difference in the number of nurses
undertaking clinical examinations (p=.065), there were differences
in the nature of examinations undertaken, including respiratory (p=
.002). There were also significant differences between groups of
nurses in relation to
nurse prescribing (p<.0001). Study 2
included observations (61 consultations by 13 nurses) and
interviews (n=11). There was variability in patient numbers within
nurse-led clinics, identifying implications for service delivery
and sustainability. Disparities in nurses’ roles and
responsibilities revealed four different levels of
nurse-led
chemotherapy clinics, from chemotherapy administration to totally
nurse-led clinics. The identification of four levels of
nurse-led
chemotherapy is a new finding, and suggests a framework for
nurse-led chemotherapy clinics that could link with
nurse
competencies and training. Five main themes were identified in
study 2; a central theme of autonomy linked with themes of
knowledge, skills, power and beliefs. A key finding was the reduced
emphasis on compassionate care with greater medical (clinical)
responsibilities within nurses’ roles, and poor communication
skills by some nurses. Despite a great diversity in oncology
specialist nurses’ roles, the lack of clarity in roles…

▼ Associate Degree (AD) nurses are challenged to plan careers that allow them to progress to their full potential. Many nurses find it difficult to advance due to not having the Bachelor of Science (BSN) degree. Research has surfaced showing better patient outcomes by BSN prepared nurses resulting in many facilities requiring nursing to be baccalaureate prepared before being hired. Further research is showing that a minimal amount of AD nurses are continuing on in their formal education. With little financial support to pursue further education and no compensation once the degree is obtained those that choose not to return to school have few opportunities for advancement. But what is not known is what AD nurses perceive as their options for career progression. In this a key informant qualitative study, 10 AD nurses were given an informational session and their feedback received. Their information was analyzed and themes were developed regarding their perception of clinical advancement. The three theme that emerged were: Value Me as an Associate Prepared
Nurse, BSN Not Sufficiently Compensated, and Uncertainty About Promotion Options.
Advisors/Committee Members: Pamella Stoeckel, Patricia Cullen.

▼ According to the 2012 CSPA, wait times for dermatology care in Canada are becoming worse. Healthcare professionals other than Dermatologists can provide care. The purpose of this study is to understand how the dermatology nursing role can be optimized in Canada. An on-line survey of dermatology nurses and Dermatologists was completed to assess current and desired
nurse activities. Barriers and views on enhancing the role of the
nurse were explored. Results overall found that dermatology nurses in Canada are working at competent to proficient levels in most activities however wish for increased education and desire to be working at more proficient levels. Dermatologists had differing past experiences with nurses however desired for them to be working at expert levels in most activities. Areas for optimization were with teledermatology, having
nurse-led clinics, prescribing, wound care, Moh???s surgery, and skin cancer screening. Recommendations for practice, education and, research are discussed.

▼ Ensuring high performing individuals are employed in the pivotal role of
nurse manager is key to meeting healthcare organizational goals. Retirements and a global shortage of nurses emphasize the urgent need to cultivate effective
nurse manager recruitment strategies. Recruitment in rural areas is especially challenging. Despite the need for effective recruitment, little research has been done to provide guidance. The purpose of this exploratory descriptive study is to provide a greater understanding of factors that inspire nurses to pursue
nurse manager positions in rural settings. The study retrospectively explored with
nurse managers, what factors encouraged them to become managers. The overall research question is: “What factors within their experience impacted participants work motivation, organizational commitment, and extra-role behaviors leading them toward acquiring a rural
nurse management position? Findings provide valuable information to guide rural health care organizations in developing effective
nurse manager recruitment strategies.

▼ M.S. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2014.
Being fairly new and deviating from the traditional pre-licensure nursing education approach, many community-based and academic health care partners raise concerns that MEPN students may not have sufficient clinical time to adequately develop their nursing skills before moving on to an advanced practice role. The purpose of this descriptive study is to compare educational progression and certification rates between traditionally prepared (i.e., Baccalaureate [BS]) and Master's Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN) prepared nurse practitioner (NP) graduates. Existing University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (UHM) School of Nursing (SON) aggregate, de-identified data were used for the analysis and included the following variables: total number of leave of absences (LOAs), incomplete grades for course work, repeat courses, withdrawals from the NP Program, dismissals from the program, semesters to complete program; and cumulative graduate nursing grade point averages (GPAs), and certification rates by year of entry into the Master's of Science in Nursing NP programs. Results of the study found significant differences for the average semesters to complete Master's coursework and part-time and full-time status between MEPN and traditional NP graduates. The MEPN NP graduates were more likely to be full-time students and to complete all course work and clinical practicums earlier than their traditional counterparts. Findings suggest that there are no differences academically between MEPN and traditional NP graduates. Future studies involving other schools and populations are needed to generalize results of the study

▼ Communication is an important part of a collaborative relationship. In healthcare, lack of communication can lead medical failures to patient errors, and even patient death. Communication failures account to 70% of 2455 annual sentinel events, and 76% of persons having a sentinel event and with subsequent death.
Nurse-physician collaboration is defined as ???an interpersonal process where physicians and nurses present with shared objects???. Both physicians and nurses need to have equity in decision-making, and in the responsibility of managing the patient in order to decrease patient mortality and improve quality of patient. In order to evoke effective communication between both parties, there needs to be elements of respect and mutual trust in the relationship.
The purpose of this grant proposal is to describe research to explore and measure the differences in perception of collaboration amongst physician and nurses on the medical surgical, and intermediate care units of a southern California hospital. A healthcare association between the distinctive units regarding
nurse-physician collaboration differences may suggest interventions to enhance collaboration. Enhanced collaboration may increase the
nurse???s job satisfaction, decrease
nurse burnout, facilitate retention of nurses and decrease hospital financial strain resulting from high staff turnover rates. Ultimately patient???s benefit from decreased medical errors resulting from miscommunications amongst physicians and nurses.

▼ All hospitals in Australia are challenged by a limited capacity to compete for scarce nursing
talent against a backdrop of diminishing national workforce supply. This study seeks to
ascertain what factors motivate nurses to apply for positions, what factors influence them to
leave their current positions, and what attractors can be put in place to entice them to work in a
hospital environment.
The participants in this study were all applicants for any type of nursing position at Liverpool
Hospital in western Sydney applying between February and September 2011. A questionnaire
was distributed to the participants to capture their views and opinions on what attracted them to
apply for a job at the case hospital. The questionnaire was designed to measure whether some
or all of the attractor strategies devised by the Hospital were successful in attracting them to
apply for a position.
A total of 480 surveys were distributed to job applicants applying for positions at the Hospital
(across all nursing classifications). Of these, 195 were completed and returned, giving a
response rate of approximately 41%.
The results from the survey provided support of the use of attractor strategies in influencing
applicants to apply for a position. The evidence from this research supports the development
and implementation of e-marketing strategies as one of the tools in attracting staff, and
demonstrated that the development of the Liverpool Hospital website, and a specific recruitment
website, was an effective tool in marketing the various attributes of the Hospital that may be
effective in attracting staff. The results from this research show that factors which improve employee satisfaction (which is
normally associated with retention) can specifically attract applicants to an organisation. These
include options such as career progression opportunities, professional development, making
one’s job more challenging or stimulating, a supportive workplace culture and mentoring and
support.
This research identified a number of factors that might be generalisable to other hospitals when
trying to attract staff to their facilities and, as such, there are a number of potential implications
for similar public hospitals.

▼ The purpose of the study was to explore and describe the perceptions of the pupil nurses at their second year level towards clinical support at the private hospital in the Limpopo Province.
Qualitative approach including exploratory, descriptive and contextual study design was followed. The target population for this study included pupil nurses at their second year level (n=20) following a two year programme leading to enrolment as a
nurse from a private nursing education institution in the Limpopo Province. Data was collected utilizing written narratives, and focus group interviews. Field notes and audio tape were used to capture data. Data saturation was reached on twelve participants.
Data were thematically analysed using Tesch’s method of open coding. The results revealed lack of clinical support. Lack of clinical support was attributed to inadequate educators for accompaniment, registered nurses’ uncaring attitude and not fulfilling their mentorship role, and pressure on pupil nurses to meet the high clinical demands. Pupil nurses were found not to be assuming full responsibilities over their practical learning. Therefore, it is mandatory as
nurse educators, managers and researchers to take note of the gaps identified and intervene utilising recommendations provided to enhance clinical support.

▼ To address the nursing shortage, it is imperative that healthcare organizations understand the reasons for nurse turnover and develop programs to retain high quality nurses. A program that has been utilized by healthcare organizations is mentoring. Mentor programs have been found to improve job satisfaction thus improving nurse retention. In addition to focusing on orientation programs for new graduate nurses, mentorship programs can be utilized to assist with experienced nurse retention. The purpose of this evidence-based practice project was to pilot a three-month mentorship program with registered nurses with one to three years of experience.

▼ Background: Cardiology is but one of the many clinical foci available to certified Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs). In fact, more acute care APRNs choose cardiology as their focus than any other. With such strong interest in cardiac advanced practice nursing, it is imperative to assess the adequacy of preparation for those who wish to follow this career path. Known barriers exist in the educational and clinical preparation of this APRN population, however, there is little research detailing the specifics of those barriers. Purpose: This study describes the needs of APRNs who plan to specialize in cardiology. Method and Sampling: A qualitative design was used to describe the motivation of APRNs specializing in cardiology, tools they currently utilize to achieve their specialization, and their needs based on the current approach. I recruited participants, APRNs specializing in cardiology, through meetings at a local cardiology practice. Seven APRNs specializing in cardiology with experience ranging from 10 months to 15 years, and currently working in a cardiac setting, participated in the study. Structured interviews were conducted to describe the needs of APRNs who plan to specialize in cardiology. The interviews were audiotaped and analyzed to reveal commonalities. Findings: After analyzing the audio recordings three major commonalities emerged: APRNs specializing in cardiology must overcome limited educational opportunities, APRNs specializing in cardiology require a higher level of skill than their formal training and licensing requirements provide, and the need to validate APRNs specializing in cardiology knowledge. Additional commonalities included availability and the type of degree programs, and a lack of cardiac focus in educational preparation. Conclusion: The findings showed the needs of APRNs who plan to specialize in cardiology are rooted in their educational preparation. There is a vast amount of variability among degree programs and a severe lack of cardiac focus in their educational preparation. In order to achieve competency, 100% of study participants secured a mentorship with an expert cardiac clinician for a minimum of one year post-graduation and without assistance from their educational programs. Additionally, APRNs specializing in cardiology believe a national certification or examination requirement would be beneficial to their practice.

▼ In a recent survey of nurse anesthetists in the United States, ninety percent identified themselves as White/Caucasian, and less than three percent identified themselves as Black. This qualitative study was designed to examine barriers and assistors to Black nurse anesthetists when applying to and during a nurse anesthesia educational program. Interviews were conducted with twelve practicing Black nurse anesthetists, and the resulting data was coded into various themes. The codes identified were grouped into broad categories: Resources, Exclusion, Hazing, Inclusion, and Significance. In the Resources category, the themes identified were: awareness, navigating the system, and funding. In the Exclusion category, the following themes were identified: segregation, I don’t belong, proving. In the Hazing category, identified themes were: misidentification, mistreatment, coping strategies. In the Inclusion category, the themes included: representation, mentorship, outreach. In the Significance category, the key themes were: recognition and purpose. The themes were then used to make recommendations for increasing professional diversity, such as the development of formal mentorship programs, increasing representation of people of color in advertising, and the development of training modules dealing with bias and diversity.

▼ The high rate of
nurse turnover can have a profound impact on the already diminishing nursing workforce. With the predicted nursing shortage, it is important to mitigate the factors that lead to turnover. Practice environment-related reasons were identified as one of the most frequent determining factors for turnover. Although some contributing factors to
nurse turnover are unavoidable, practice environment-related reasons are within the
nurse managers’ (NMs) control. NMs play an integral role in this regard since their leadership ability and support greatly influence frontline nurses’ perception of their practice environment. Furthermore, NMs’ ability to create positive practice environments that reduce frontline turnover may depend on their leadership knowledge, skills, and abilities. Thus, it was necessary to explore essential competencies of current NMs. This study was guided by the NM Learning Domain Framework (NMLDF), which asserts that for NMs to be successful, they must gain expertise in three leadership domains: art of leadership; science of leadership; and leader within. The purpose of this study was to assess essential competencies of current NMs and examine the relationship among NM competencies, frontline
nurse perception of practice environments, and frontline nurses’ intent to stay (ITS). Moreover, four of its specific aims were as follows: (1) describe the ten essential competencies self-assessed by NMs; (2) evaluate the psychometric properties of Warshawsky’s NM Competency Instrument; (3) examine the correlation between NM competencies,
nurse practice environment, and frontline nurses’ ITS; and (4) examine the direct effect of NM competency on frontline nurses’ ITS and examine the indirect effect of NM competency on frontline nurses’ ITS, mediated by the
nurse practice environment. To fulfill the aforementioned aims, this study conducted secondary analysis of the NM Competency data and 2017 National Database of
Nurse Quality Indicators® Registered
Nurse Survey data gathered from 53 U.S. hospitals. Additionally, a cross-sectional correlational design was used to evaluate the relationships among the study variables, controlling for hospital characteristics (location, size, and teaching status), unit characteristics (unit type), NM characteristics (education and certification), and frontline
nurse characteristics (tenure and education). Data analyses were conducted at the unit level. Descriptive and bivariate data analyses (specific aims 1 and 3) were performed using SPSS Statistics version 24 to further explore the relationships between the variables. Path analysis (specific aim 4) was conducted using Mplus version 8 to test the mediation effect of the
nurse practice environment on NM competency and frontline nurses’ ITS. Psychometric properties (specific aim 2) were tested using Mplus. The reliability of Warshawsky’s instrument was supported by the results of Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Cronbach’s alpha test. The results demonstrated that all indicators were significantly loaded onto their…

▼ The current document is a three-paper dissertation exploring northern Ontario primary
healthcare Nurse Practitioners’ (NPs) job satisfaction and intent to leave. The
characteristics of NP job satisfaction and intent to leave are poorly understood. The
broader work on NP job satisfaction and intent to leave has relied heavily on quantitative
cross-sectional methods. I decided to use qualitative methods in order to seek deeper
understanding of NP job satisfaction and intent to leave. The sample for this constructivist
grounded theory study included 18 primary healthcare NPs working full time in primary
healthcare in Northern Ontario. Telephone interviews were conducted and transcripts were
analyzed. We found that primary healthcare NP job satisfaction was dependent upon a
particular mix of “satisfiers”. These satisfiers included independence and interdependence,
challenging work, quiet moments, and beginnings and endings. NPs experience
dissatisfaction related to role recognition, geographical distances, overwork, and feeling
overwhelmed. Key features were identified as contributors to primary healthcare NP intent
to leave. These included inadequate remuneration, the lack of a provincial government
pension plan, the quality of their relationships with management and administration and
extended benefits programs. Among those considering leaving a primary healthcare NP
position, key features of a new position would include adequate remuneration, generous
extended benefits, and a shorter distance from home and practice sites. Some respondents
intending to leave their current practice setting identified that they would be seeking work
outside of NP practice. This study served to clarify key job features and processes related
to job satisfaction and intent to leave among Northern Ontario’s primary healthcare NP
population. A broader theory of NP job satisfaction and intent to leave emanated from the
analysis of relationships among these key concepts within the study. The findings of this
study could serve to inform initiatives to retain and recruit primary healthcare NPs within
both rural and urban practice settings across northern Ontario.

▼ Healthcare is provided in a complex dynamic system
that requires leadership at all levels and positions in order to
achieve the goal of safe, efficient, high quality care to all
Canadians. Advanced practice nurses (APNs) are expected to
demonstrate leadership. The purpose of this study was to explore
APNs’ perceptions of their leadership and how it contributes to
positive healthcare outcomes. A qualitative descriptive methodology
informed by a leadership framework was used to explore
participants’ perceptions. Fourteen APNs participated in
semi-structured interviews. Content analysis was used and two
themes were identified from the data: Patient-focused leadership
and Organization and system-focused leadership. These two themes
are further described through leadership domains that house
leadership capabilities and outcomes. The findings of this study
can be used to clearly articulate APN leadership and its
contribution to patients and families, nurses and other health care
providers, organizations and the healthcare system.

▼ This study has been conducted to explore the issues affecting the recruitment and retention of nurses in the rural general practice setting. There is a lack of qualitative research about the rural practice nurse role and why rural practice nurses remain in the Australian primary healthcare workforce. Commonly, research in this area has been characterised by the role of urban practice nurses, the role and retention issues of rural community and hospital nurses and workforce retention issues for rural health practitioners. This is the first study conducted solely on rural practice nurses in Australia, and seeks to capture three key objectives: to investigate why rural practice nurses remain in their role, to identify social aspects that effect rural practice nurse retention, and to identify professional aspects that effect practice nurse retention.
Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a purposive and convenience sample of rural practice nurses working in communities on the south coast of New South Wales in 2008. Data saturation was attained after seven interviews. Thematic analysis of the transcribed interviews was conducted using the NVivo 7 software package to organise data. The four main themes that emerged were the pursuit for professional recognition, grooming nursing services to meet needs, being ‘good for business’ (making money), and mastering the art of living.
This study is a starting point to understand the role of rural Australian practice nurses, and has provided an insight into the personal and professional life journey of rural practice nursing. The most satisfying aspects of the role were when nurses felt professionally trusted and respected, had designated nursing space and could achieve a life-work balance. The most challenging aspects of the role were moulding their nursing services within parameters of changing financial incentive programs, and the need for greater education opportunities to support the evolving generalist role. The nurses felt they needed to be professionally valued with greater remuneration. With changing primary healthcare policy incorporating the expansion of the practice nurse role, strategic support planning for the rural practice nurse workforce is essential.

▼ Bakgrund: Inom hälso-och sjukvården har samarbete vuxit fram som en organisationsform. Kunskap om hur vårdpersonal uppfattar samarbete är värdefullt för en fortsatt utveckling av organisationen och för att säkra god vård. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka undersköterskans, anestesisjuksköterskans och operationssjuksköterskans uppfattning av samarbetet på operationssalen samt vilka främjande och hindrande faktorer som påverkade samarbetet. Metod: Som metod valdes en deskriptiv design med kvantitativa data. Ett frågeformulär har använts för att uppnå syftet med studien. Frågeformuläret har inspirerats av "The Operating Room Management Attitudes Questionnaire". Totalt 38 frågeformulär med medföljande informationsbrev delades ut till 12 operationssjuksköterskor, 13 anestesisjuksköterskor och 13 undersköterskor. Personalen informerades om studien muntligen på en arbetsplatsträff (APT). Resultat: Resultatet visade att de främjande faktorerna för ett fungerande samarbetet är god kommunikation, personkemi, kompetens, teamträning, checklista och konstruktiv kritik. De hindrande faktorerna för ett fungerande samarbete som framkom i resultatet var att det inte gavs tid för reflexion, bristande resurser gällande personal och utrusning samt trång arbetsmiljö. Konklusion: Om kommunikationen fungerar mellan professionerna samt att tid ges för reflexion främjas i sin tur samarbetet och patientsäkerheten vilket minskar vårdskador.
Background: Cooperation as a form of organisation has become more and more important within the health services.Knowledge of how health professionals perceive cooperation is valuable for the further development of the organization and to ensure good care. Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate an assistant nurse's, nurse's anesthetist and surgical nurse's the perception of cooperation in the operating room, as well as the promotion and prevention factors affecting cooperation. Method: The method was a descriptive design with quantitative data. A questionnaire was used in order to achieve the purpuse of the study.The questionnaire is inspired by "The Operating Room Management Attitudes Questionnaire". A total of 38 questionnaires with an accompanying information letter was distributed to 12 surgical nurses, 13 nurse anesthetists and 13 assistant nurses. The staff were informed about the study orally in a department meeting. Results: The results showed that the promoting factors for an effective collaboration is good communication, personal chemistry, expertise, teamtraining, checklist and constructive criticism. The disincentives for a functional cooperation that emerged in the result, was that there was no time for reflection, a lack of staff resources, shortage of equipment and cramped working conditions. Conclusion: A well functioning communication between professions, where time for reflection is…

▼ Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)
The Bureau of Labor Statistics projected a shortage of registered nurses (RNs) growing to an estimated 581,500 by the year 2025 (an increase of 22 percent since 2008). Recent economical downturns have found many healthcare organizations experiencing a positive effect with the stabilization of nursing turnover. Once the economy begins to recover, however, experts predict the profession of nursing will still face the largest shortage in history according to projections by the American Nurses Association. Because lack of job satisfaction is a precursor to resignation, additional research regarding the identification of interventions that increase RN job satisfaction may result in retaining professionally qualified and prepared staff. This study proposed to identify through focus groups, staff nurse perceptions of nurse manager behaviors that influence RN staff nurse job satisfaction. A sample of 28 RNs, each participating in one of five focus groups, answered questions related to satisfaction with nurse manager behaviors. The investigator used qualitative content analysis to identify patterns within and across focus group data.
Major findings of the study resulted in the identification of two conceptual categories (manager behaviors supportive of RNs and RN’s perceived disconnect of work issues from the manager’s role) and three major themes related to supportive behaviors (communication, respect, and feeling cared for). The results suggest the following as staff nurse preferences for nurse manager behaviors: open and honest communication that involves listening, consistency, and confidentiality; an increased level of respect including fairness and recognition of a job well done; and the sense of feeling cared for as when a manager meets individual needs and supports staff as professionals. The investigator compared the categories and themes to previous tools used in healthcare, which indicate the need for further item and/or tool development as well as further research regarding RNs’ perceived disconnect of work issues from the manager’s role.

▼ The amount of time
nurse managers and senior leadership spend with frontline or bedside staff impacts their ability to empower, engage and retain staff. Improving
nurse satisfaction in relationship to teamwork, perception of senior leadership and attitude about direct management should be a priority of all organizations. Leaders that recognize the power of an intergenerational and interdisciplinary workforce will be influential for dynamic change and visionary development. Advancing overall teamwork as a nursing department, developing a better rapport with senior leadership and improving the relationship between direct management and front-line nurses is in the best interest of patient care.

▼ As Registered Nurses (RNs) are crucial to delivering care, it is important to determine the factors which contribute to a healthy work environment for nurses and positive outcomes for patients. Past research has focused on the benefits of
nurse-physician collaboration including improved
nurse/ patient satisfaction and lower patient mortality. The few studies which have explored
nurse-nurse collaboration have linked it with positive outcomes. To determine whether there is a relationship between
nurse-nurse collaboration and
nurse job satisfaction in the hospital setting, this correlational study involved a convenience/ snowball sample of RNs working in hospitals, who completed the two study instruments (Dougherty-Larson
Nurse-Nurse Collaboration Instrument [DLNNCI] and McCloskey Mueller Satisfaction Scale [MMSS]). The results indicated a significant, positive correlation between
nurse-nurse collaboration and
nurse job satisfaction (r = .569, p<.01). Collaboration between nurses is associated with
nurse job satisfaction and may contribute to the development of a healthy work environment

▼ Background; Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a public health problem. COPD can change on a daily basis, patients can have recurring exacerbations and severe exacerbations results in hospital admission. By administering self-management patients can minimize the severity and/or length of the exacerbation. Unfortunately, many COPD patients find it hard to achieve self-management. This can cause re-admission. Nurses may struggle with their feelings when patients are re-admitted. They might be less motivated to care for and guide these patients. However, little is known about the care that nurses provide and how they stay motivated to treat COPD patients who are repeatedly admitted to a hospital. Aim and research question; Collect information about nurses’ perspectives concerning caring for and improving self-management in patients with COPD who are repeatedly admitted to a pulmonary ward. Method; A qualitative descriptive study. Participants came from a purposeful sample of 58 nurses, working in two general hospitals, on two pulmonary wards. Semi-structured interviews were held. Thematic content analysis was used to make inferences about the perspectives. Results; Twelve nurses were interviewed. During the analysis three main themes emerged; perspectives, feelings and motivation. These main themes influence the care nurses give to and the guiding in improving self-management in patients with COPD. Conclusion; Nurses’ care for and improving self-management in patients with COPD is influenced by their perspectives, e.g. patients have low learning competencies, feelings, e.g. powerlessness and frustration, and their motivations. Recommendations; Barriers, like feeling frustration and not having the motivation to improve self-management, are made visible and these barriers should be taken into account when a training is developed to improve the care nurses give to patients with COPD.

▼ This thesis focuses on the competencies that mentors need to guide student nurses. By a literature review consisting of research out of different relevant contexts, a list with 20 competencies was drawn up. With the use of focus groups, this list was tested on it’s relevance within the University Medical Center Utrecht. By adding, combining and deleting competencies, the focus groups resulted in an acuminated list of 17 competencies. Finally a survey was used to define the matter of importance of these competencies. The survey showed that the seven most important competencies of a mentor are: commitment, enthusiasm, feedback, objective assessment, open communication, responding to education of student and transferring knowledge.

▼ Dissertação de mestrado em Enfermagem Médico-Cirúrgica apresentada na Escola Superior de Saúde do Instituto Politécnico de Viana do Castelo
A Paragem Cardiorrespiratória (PCR) é um evento que pode ocorrer em meio intra-hospitalar, normalmente de modo inesperado. Exige uma resposta imediata e eficiente o que gera nos profissionais de saúde, nomeadamente nos enfermeiros que na maior parte das vezes se encontram na primeira linha, stress e até dilemas éticos.
Neste sentido, surge este estudo que visa compreender as experiências dos enfermeiros de uma unidade de internamento perante uma situação de PCR. Este assenta numa abordagem qualitativa, com caráter descritivo simples e exploratório, em que a estratégia de recolha de dados incidiu na entrevista semiestruturada, dirigida a oito enfermeiros. Os dados foram analisados com o recurso à técnica de análise de conteúdo.
Dos dados sobressaem fatores que dificultam a atuação do enfermeiro perante a situação de PCR nomeadamente, a inexperiência do enfermeiro, o défice de conhecimentos relativos aos equipamentos e aos procedimentos, fatores relacionados com os recursos (humanos, materiais e condições físicas) e a tomada de decisão em reanimar ou não reanimar. O trabalho em equipa, a formação contínua e a partilha de experiências para reflectir sobre a situação e ajudar no alívio do stress, foram também os fatores facilitadores que emergiram no estudo. Foi visível também que a situação desencadeia diversos sentimentos nos enfermeiros, sentimentos positivos como a felicidade e a satisfação e sentimentos negativos como a angústia, a ansiedade, a frustração, a impotência, o medo e o stress. Esta dualidade de sentimentos surge da possibilidade de se conseguir salvar a vida da pessoa.
Estes resultados sugerem que é importante implementar estratégias/dinâmicas favorecedoras de uma formação contínua e de partilha de experiências nas equipas que proporcionam uma melhor intervenção nestas situações.
The Cardiopulmonary Arrest (CPA) is an event that can occur in a hospital environment, typically in an unexpected way. Requires an immediate response and efficient that generates in health professionals, especially nurses, most of whom are in the first line, stress and even ethical dilemmas.
In this regard, this study aims to understand the experiences of nurses in a Nursing unit in a situation of CPA. This is based on a qualitative approach, with character simple descriptive and exploratory, in that the strategy of data collection focused on semi-structured interviews, addressed to eight nurses. The data were analyzed with the use of content analysis technique.
The data stand out factors that hinder the action of the nurse in this situation of CPA in particular were the inexperience of the nurse, the lack of knowledge concerning the equipment and procedures, factors related to the resources (human, material and physical conditions) and the decision-making in resuscitate or do not resuscitate order. The teamwork, continuous training and the sharing of experiences to reflect on the…

▼ The transition from student nurse to Registered Nurse Grade 1 is a difficult journey for many graduates. New graduates experience issues related to reality shock, socialisation, confidence and the theory practice gap. It is well recognised that graduates require extensive support and development throughout this very difficult time. In Victoria graduate nurse programs are a recognised vessel to deliver this support. Quality graduate programs which meet the satisfaction of graduate nurses are required to provide effective support. The implications of minimal support are enormous and can lead to graduates leaving the profession. There is much in the literature suggesting the importance of each of the varied components of graduate programs however there is minimal comparisons made between various programs. As a result it was difficult to measure the qualities of programs. The purpose of this study was to explore and compare various graduate nurse programs and identify whether the programs were satisfying the needs of graduate nurses. An exploratory descriptive design was utilised and a written questionnaire was employed to gain data. The findings of this research indicated that the delivery of graduate nurse programs within this study were not consistent in content and quality. Overall graduates were satisfied with their graduate nurse program although they identified there were areas which required improvement. This project has suggested that the analysis of graduate nurse satisfaction is vital in identifying quality programs that retain graduates. It is essential that ongoing evaluation of programs are completed by graduate nurses to ensure they are satisfying their needs and thus retaining them within the nursing profession
