Autonomous competences and quality of professional life of paediatric nurses in primary care, their relationship and associated factors: A cross‐sectional study

“…Intrinsic motivation and quality of work life mean scores were very high and high, respectively. In line with our findings, Garrido et al ( 2010 ) and Villarín et al ( 2015 ) reported that the quality of professional life of nurses in primary health care was lower for the domains managerial support and intrinsic motivation, and for the two other independent items. The domain workload achieved the highest score.…”

Instruments to Assess Family Nurse’s Workload: Scoping Review

“…The studies included in this review allow us to state that there is still a gap in evidence regarding family nurse's workload assessment [1,13,18,19,24,25]. Given the differences in nature of the care provided by family nurses, particularly when compared with the care provided in hospitals, we must use with caution the conclusions obtained from previous studies that analyze workload, as being a phenomenon with similar characteristics to these two care settings [26][27][28].…”

“…The reviewed studies include a wide range of concepts that may not be directly related to each other, being conceptually independent, but that indirectly make up the overall perceived workload [1,13,15,16,19,22,24]. An example of this, are instruments that point out factors such as: work pressure [1,13,15,17,24], the pace of work [16,19], the time available to provide care [1,13,15,17,24], the impact of work on family life [21][22][23], staffing/professional ratios [1,13,15,17], carrying out administrative or non-care-related tasks [13], physical, cognitive and emotional effort [22] or, the availability of resources [1,25]. Some of these aspects are more prevalent in the revised instruments, however it's premature to conclude that these are more significant than others for evaluating the family nurse's workload.…”

“…All studies included in the present review mainly aimed to evaluate various aspects other than specifically family nurse's workload, with this concept being assessed by two different ways: (1) with its own instrument (integrating a multidimensional questionnaire) or, (2) as a component of another instrument (in the form of a dimension), in a specific workload sub-scale. In fact, the instruments included aim to assess a varied set of constructs, such as: professional stress [13,14,18,19,24], burnout [1,17], job satisfaction [15,[21][22][23][24] or, the quality of professional life [16,20,25]. All of them are intended to represent dimensions of the family nurses care practices, which also includes workload.…”

“…The review carried out also allows us to list, as a result of the number of correlational studies included [13,15,[17][18][19]22,24,25], the relationship between family nurses' perception of workload and its main consequences. Burnout stands out [17], professional dissatisfaction [15,22,24], illness and professional absenteeism [13,18], the intention to leave the current workplace or even nursing [19,24] were the major workload consequences depicted in studies included in our review.…”
