“…Data were obtained through a cross-sectional design using two validated questionnaires and were distributed to three different hospitals with diverse nursing staff in Saudi Arabia. The findings of the study suggest promising The modest overall score of the SC corroborates earlier studies using the same tool in Saudi Arabia (Albaqawi et al, 2019;Cruz, Alquwez, et al, 2018), China (Wu et al, 2020) and Greece (Fradelos & Tzavella, 2020). However, the score in the present study was lower than that in a study conducted in the USA (Doram et al, 2017 prior studies conducted in Saudi Arabia (Albaqawi et al, 2019;Cruz, Alquwez, et al, 2018).…”

“…Fernandes Bella, Gonçalves Quelhas, Toledo Ferraz, and Soares Bezerra (2018), as cited in Wu et al. (2020), indicated that ‘expressing spirituality has been linked to the reduction of staff stress when caring in demanding clinical settings’. This link might partly be explained by the variable Hospital C, whose nurses had poorer compassion satisfaction, higher burnout and greater secondary traumatic stress compared with those from other hospitals.…”

Studies on workplace spirituality and health care workers' professional quality of life (ProQoL) have been expanding in recent years. Workplace spirituality within the health care system embodies one's efforts to pursue a meaningful and purposeful life; develop healthy relationships among colleagues, clients and families; and maintain coherent individual and organisational beliefs and values (Baldacchino, 2017). Spiritual climate (SC) is a common understanding among employees towards spirituality and the partaking of the shared spirituality of the workplace (Daniel, 2010). ProQoL is the emotional perception that each individual has of

“…This set of leadership styles constitutes the Full Range of Leadership Model (FRLM). The Transformational leadership (TL) style has been extensively studied and frequently cited as the most favoured and desired leadership style within nursing and other disciplines (Doody & Doody, 2012; Wu et al, 2020). TL is characterized by individual consideration, intellectual stimulation, inspirational motivation and idealized influence (Doody & Doody, 2012).…”

Nursing leadership styles and their impact on intensive care unit quality measures: An integrative review

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Aim To examine the impact of nursing leadership styles on intensive care unit quality measures. Background Evidence on the impact of leadership styles has direct implications for building and strengthening leadership behaviours that foster quality nursing care in intensive care units. Evaluation An integrative review approach was adopted. Databases including the Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, Google Scholar and the Cochrane Library were searched. Key issues(s) Out of 253 identified studies, seven were included in the review. Leadership styles in intensive care units include transformational, considerate, exemplary, trusted and absentee leadership. Active nurse leaders who share a common vision, and advocate for their staff are perceived as more effective than those who exhibit absentee characteristics. Structural measures influenced by leadership styles include productivity and morale of nursing staff. Outcome measures such as staff outcomes (intent to stay, job satisfaction), medication errors and periventricular/intraventricular haemorrhage in neonatal intensive care units have a positive relational effect with nursing leadership style. Conclusions The findings highlight the link between nursing leadership styles on structural and outcome measures in intensive care units. The current literature lacks studies highlighting the impact of nursing leadership styles on process measures in intensive care units. Implications for nursing management Transformational, considerate, exemplary leadership practices, and trusted leadership styles when used by nurse leaders guarantee higher quality of nursing care in intensive care units. Therefore, modern leadership styles need to be supported by health care organisations and education.

“…The research provides evidence that stressful working culture, workload, incompetent leadership, nurse–physician relationship, level of job satisfaction and inadequate nursing workforce are amongst the major contributing factors that stimulate nurses to quit the job (Boamah & Laschinger, 2016; Cheng et al., 2016; Leiter & Maslach, 2009). Such factors challenged the capacity of health care leaders to ensure appropriate staff requirements and a stress‐free work environment for nurses to achieve optimum patient care (Wong, Cummings, & Ducharme, 2013; Wu et al., 2020). The leader's role is acknowledged as a means to support employees by treating them intellectually and emotionally (Al‐Hamdan et al, 2020).…”

Aim To explore the influence of leader emotional intelligence on the working culture prevailing in teams that ultimately impacts nurses’ intent to leave the job. Background Global shortages of nursing professionals have been concerning issues of extreme vitality in the delivery of superior services. Though the state‐of‐the‐art system provides relief, the hospital management continued worrying about losing highly skilled nursing professionals due to a higher level of emotional exhaustion exhibiting progressive turnover. Methods A survey technique was employed for data collection from nurses. Further data were analysed by structural equation modelling in the light of 313 substantial responses by using SmartPLS. Results The findings revealed that leader emotional intelligence impulses critical constructive effects by fulfilling the needs of nurses and has an impact on their turnover intentions simultaneously. Conclusion The research provides an empirical lens of leadership and culture, which noticeably explain turnover intention. This study affirmed solid connections amongst the leader emotional intelligence, team culture and turnover intentions. Implications for nursing management The study provides valuable insight for health management organisations to focus on factors that decrease the turnover intention of nurses. Considering a global shortage of nurses, nursing management must consider crucial aspects of the work environment and plan interventions to restrain nursing turnover intentions.
