Predictors of Home Healthcare Nurse Retention

Abstract

Predicted nursing shortages and increasing demand have made the retention of experienced, qualified nursing staff essential to assure access to high-quality home healthcare services in the future.

The Determinants of Job Satisfaction of Nurses: Focused on Work Rewards

“…일반적으로 직무만족은 이직, 결근 및 노조활동과 같은 조직 행동 (Fisher & Locke, 1992) 이나 개인의 삶의 질 (Yu et al, 2008), 신체적 및 정신적인 건강 (House, 1981) 등과 밀접하게 관련되어 있다. 또한 직무만족은 간호사가 이직하지 않고 현직에 머물게 할 수 있는 가장 강력한 요인이며 (Aiken, Clarke, Sloan, Sochalski, & Silber, 2002;Ellenbecker, Porell, Samia, Byleckie, & Milburn, 2008) (Ko & Yom, 2003;Mottaz, 1988). 이에 덧붙여, 직무만족을 설명할 수 있는 결정요인 을 체계적이고 포괄적으로 검토한 연구는 매우 미미하였다 (Seo, Ko, & Price, 2004).…”

Autonomous home-care nursing staff are more engaged in their work and less likely to consider leaving the healthcare sector: A questionnaire survey

“…In addition, many OECD countries have developed policies to substitute institutional care with home care in response to people's preference for receiving care at home, as a measure for curbing the rapid growth in healthcare expenditure and helped by technological developments that further enable home-based care (Ellenbecker et al, 2008;Genet et al, 2013;OECD, 2013).…”

“…Hayes et al (2012) reviewed recent literature on the intention to leave and actually leaving the organisation, unit/ward or the profession among registered nurses, practical/enrolled nurses and assistant nurses working in hospitals, long-term care or community care. However, current knowledge of job factors that impact on intentions to leave home care is limited (Ellenbecker et al, 2008). Research on turnover in nursing has tended to focus on leaving the organisation rather than the sector (Chan et al, 2013) and on hospital nurses (Hayes et al, 2012).…”

Clinical Outcomes and Quality of Life of Home Health Care Patients

“…Following the downturn of Medicare home health care by the Balanced Budget Act in 1997, home health care began to recover under the home health prospective payment system (Murkofsky & Alston, 2009). Demand for home care services increased not only because of increasing elderly population, but also because of consumer preference and technological advances that allowed complex care to be delivered at home (Ellenbecker, Porell, Samia, Byleckie, & Milburn, 2008). Home health care services are available to all age groups, but 70.5% of such patients were elderly people aged 65 years or above (Caffrey, Sengupta, Moss, Harris-Kojetin, & Valverde, 2011; National Center for Health Statistics, 2005.…”
