“…Moreover, participants with a master’s degree were more likely to consider leaving prehospital EMS and the nursing sector completely. There are many competencies that could be utilized in EMS if more thought were given to career paths in this sector [ 34 ]. One might not be motivated to continue doing the exact same tasks after obtaining a postgraduate degree.…”

Background The scope of emergency medical services (EMS) has expanded from the urgent care of emergency patients to on-call healthcare services provided in the field with a holistic view of the patient’s wellbeing. This challenges EMS to find solutions to cover all demands, while simultaneously setting high skill requirements for EMS personnel. Understanding personnel is a critical element in developing functional and resistant EMS. The aim of this study was to investigate how Finnish EMS personnel emphasize the Emergency Medical Services Role Identity Scale aspects of caregiving, thrill-seeking, duty, and capacity; and if these role identities are associated with intention to leave the profession. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional survey (N = 616, 52% women, mean age 32.9 years). Data were collected through social media platforms and analyzed with means, standard deviations, Mann-Whitney U-tests, Kruskal-Wallis H-tests, and binary logistic regression analyses. Results Our results indicate that capacity is the most emphasized aspect among EMS personnel, and at the same time, it increases intention to leave EMS. Capacity was followed by caregiving, with no association with intention to leave. Duty and thrill-seeking were the least emphasized and were negatively associated with intention to leave. Additionally, there were also other factors that were associated with emphasizing EMS-RIS aspect and intention to leave. Conclusion Capacity stands out most strongly in analysis being at the core of the role identity of EMS personnel and was associated with a higher likelihood of leaving intentions. Several other factors were also associated with the intention to leave. Future studies should examine the exact dimensions of capacity that are considered important among EMS personnel and why factors such as work experience are associated with intentions to leave.

“…Health care continues to evolve rapidly, and it is crucial to understand if current approaches to the field of nursing are truly driving the profession in the desired direction (Giddens & Mansfield, 2023). Novice nurses benefit from mentorship (Kennedy, 2023). With the alarming number of nurses leaving the bedside early in their careers, it is more important than ever for educators, mentors, faculties, or even preceptors to talk about the different routes of nursing that are available and draw upon the professional goals, interests, and strengths of every nurse (Hunt et al, 2020).…”

The changing landscape of nursing and increasing number of nurses leaving the profession calls for a reexamination of career pathways. Professional mentors and faculty play a pivotal role in advising nursing students and new nurses. By sharing lessons learned from an undergraduate nursing student after interviewing 21 nurses working in nontraditional roles, the article highlights the importance of embracing the diverse professional goals and strengths of each nurse as a retention strategy.

Background The shortage of nurses has been a global human resources problem. A good professional growth environment is essential to developing potential nursing students and attracting nurses to join, and it has great significance in reducing nurse turnover. However, nurses’ comprehensive perceptions of professional growth have not yet been examined. Methods A cluster sampling method was used to conduct a professional growth questionnaire survey on young nursing talents from a large Chinese public tertiary A hospital in March 2022. Results The score of professional growth among 243 young nursing talents was 57.92 ± 9.607, with a scoring rate of 77.23%. The scores for dimensions of professional growth, from lowest to highest, were rehabilitation growth, promotion speed, professional goal progress, and professional ability development. Attitudes towards participating in training, service as the quality manager or clinical teacher, self-efficacy, professional title, work-family support, education, and organizational commitment of young nursing talents were significantly associated with professional growth. Conclusion The professional growth of young nursing talents was at a moderate level and needed to be strengthened. Nursing leaders and managers are expected to develop management practices to enhance young nursing talents’ professional growth in combination with the related factors.
