“…Prior studies showed poor organisational support contributed to nurses’ turnover intention (Abou Hashish, ; Burlison et al, ; Liu & Aungsuroch, ), and institutional supports could retain nurses (Chang et al, ). However, findings from the current study showed that organisational support did not have a direct effect on turnover intention, which might be related to the very limited support that the participants received from the institution.…”

Aim This cross‐sectional correlation study aimed to explore the associations among patient safety culture, organisational support, second victim‐related distress, absenteeism and turnover intentions in the registered nurses (RNs) by using structural equation modelling. Background Medical errors could cause RNs’ second victim‐related distress, which may either positively or negatively impact patient safety culture. Method The Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC) and Second Victim Experience and Support Tool (SVEST) were used to investigate 267 RNs who were involved in direct patient care and medical errors within the previous year in China. Results About half (45.3%) of nurses experienced psychological distress, and 26.6% of the nurses intended to leave. The model showed that 6 dimensions of patient safety culture have contributed to decreasing absenteeism and turnover intention via increased organisational supports and decreased second victim‐related distress. Conclusion The second victim‐related distress may be relieved, and organisational support may be enhanced through improvements in patient safety culture. Implications for nursing management Strategies are needed to establish an environment where cooperation/cooperative relationships between the supervisor and the staff nurse can be ensured.

“…Nurses’ professional turnover intentions are of vital importance to nurse managers and health policymakers (Chang et al, ). Mitigating professional turnover intentions are an important first step in ameliorating the shortage of nurses in many countries, which is, in turn, critical in ensuring population health (Brunetto & Teo, ).…”

Aims and objectives This study examines the impacts of mentor–mentee rapport on willingness to mentor/be mentored, self‐efficacy, outcome expectations, career interest and subsequently on nurses’ professional turnover intention. Background Workplace relationships, whether positive or negative, influence nurse turnover within an organisation. Yet little is known about the effects of mentoring on nurses’ intentions to leave the nursing profession. Design A cross‐sectional, survey‐based research design was used to collect data from a large medical centre in Northern Taiwan. Methods Study concepts were measured using scales from social capital theory (SCT), social cognitive career theory (SCCT) and the nursing literature. Partial least square structural equation modelling was used to test all study hypotheses. The STROBE statement was chosen as the EQUATOR checklist. Results For mentors, rapport was positively related to willingness to mentor, which was positively related to outcome expectations, and further, positively related to career interest and negatively related to professional turnover intention. For mentees, rapport was positively related to willingness to be mentored, which was positively related to self‐efficacy, outcome expectations and ultimately to career interest. Career interest was negatively related to professional turnover intentions. Conclusions Rapport between mentors and mentees may be an important means to retain nurses in the profession. Relevance to clinical practice Managers should consider taking steps to enhance rapport between mentors and mentees. In doing so, managers improve nurse retention, a critical component of providing high‐quality patient care.

“…Thus, allowing for regular assessment of the program and providing the context to continuously improve. The shortage of adequately prepared pediatric critical care nurses has been consistently recognized as a global issue that affects the quantity of children cared for and the quality of the care delivered (Aiken et al, 2002, Chang et al, 2015. This shortage could persist well into 2030 and its effects are most apparent in resourceconstrained environments (Chang et al, 2015).…”

This shortage could persist well into 2030 and its effects are most apparent in resourceconstrained environments (Chang et al, 2015). Recently, there has been focused efforts to improve nurse retention in resource constrained-environments by 1) improving working conditions for nurses, 2) increasing their salaries, 3) enhancing their practice environments (e.g., autonomy, control over practice), and 4) promoting nurses' professional development (Gilmartin, 2013).…”
