This book was released on 2016 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: Public health nurses (PHN) work long hours, carry high caseloads, manage with fewer resources, and must deal with increasing technology while ensuring the provision of quality care. Since the time of Lillian Wald, public health nursing has undergone a major transformation in the types of services provided in the community due to the complexity and acuity of the current patient population. PHNs play a significant role in helping patients to effectively manage their illness in order to prevent unplanned hospitalizations. Illness, absenteeism, turnover, and poor job satisfaction are end products of stress. The purpose of this DNP project was to examine the impact of care coordination and caseload on job satisfaction and stress on the PHNs who are providing care to patients in the community. Methods: Descriptive study using mixed methods of data collection and analysis. A purposive sample of nurses who have had experience working in home care and who have provided skilled nursing care for a minimum of one year completed self-reported surveys. Perceived stress was measured with the Expanded Nursing Stress Scale. Job satisfaction was assessed using the Measurement of Job Satisfaction Tool. Analysis of the data collected from the surveys included descriptive and inferential statistics. Correlation coefficients, two-sample t-tests and content analysis were used to summarize the data and compare group differences between nurses with different caseloads. Results: However, due to a small sample size, the correlation and t test results showed inconsistency with content analysis. Content analysis provided more insight and represented more accurately the characteristics of a small sample size. Conclusion/ Clinical relevance: There exists a gap in the research regarding the impact of these factors on PHN and additional research is needed to explore the relationships between work conditions and PHN stress and impact on patient care. The results of this study support the idea that high caseloads impact job satisfaction and stress levels of nurses working in public health. Implementing changes to improve work conditions would provide PHNs with the time needed to focus on quality patient care which would ultimately lead to improved patient outcomes. In addition, the data collected from this project could influence change as it relates to the current model of care delivery in public health.

It not only examines in depth their experiences, roadblocks to successful employment, and misperceptions surrounding them, but also provides viable solutions for creating positive attitudes towards them and a welcoming work environment that fosters hiring and retention. From the perspectives and actual voices of nurses with disabilities, nurse leaders, nurse administrators, and patients, the book identifies nurses with disabilities (including sensory, musculoskeletal, emotional, and mental health issues), discusses why they choose to leave nursing or hide their disabilities, and analyzes how their disabilities may influence career choices.

This book was released on 1996-03-27 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospitals and nursing homes are responding to changes in the health care system by modifying staffing levels and the mix of nursing personnel. But do these changes endanger the quality of patient care? Do nursing staff suffer increased rates of injury, illness, or stress because of changing workplace demands? These questions are addressed in Nursing Staff in Hospitals and Nursing Homes, a thorough and authoritative look at today's health care system that also takes a long-term view of staffing needs for nursing as the nation moves into the next century. The committee draws fundamental conclusions about the evolving role of nurses in hospitals and nursing homes and presents recommendations about staffing decisions, nursing training, measurement of quality, reimbursement, and other areas. The volume also discusses work-related injuries, violence toward and abuse of nursing staffs, and stress among nursing personnelâ€"and examines whether these problems are related to staffing levels. Included is a readable overview of the underlying trends in health care that have given rise to urgent questions about nurse staffing: population changes, budget pressures, and the introduction of new technologies. Nursing Staff in Hospitals and Nursing Homes provides a straightforward examination of complex and sensitive issues surround the role and value of nursing on our health care system.
