Bormann and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospitals are challenged to understand factors related to staff nurse retention in the context of the nursing shortage slowdown (Huselid, 1995; Mancino, 2008; Mancino, 2009). Leadership is a major factor in organizational success (Gandossy & Guarnieri, 2008; Gettler, 2003; Wooten & Crane, 2003) and nurse managers are the direct link between the executive nurse leaders and the registered nurses (RN) in the staff position (Taunton, Boyle, Woods, Hansen, & Bott, 1997). Studies show that nurse manager leader behaviors influence staff nurse job satisfaction (Blegen, 1993; Irvine & Evans, 1995; Lashinger & Finegan, 2005). A primary role of the nurse leader is to plan strategies for recruiting nursing personnel and to prevent rapid and frequent turnover of nursing staff (American Nurses Association [ANA] Nursing Administration Scope and Standards of Practice, 2009). Nurse managers are in a position to influence staff nurses' job satisfaction and retention through their leader behaviors. McGuire and Kennerly (2006) and Brown and Reilly (2009) conducted studies that show managers perceive their leadership behaviors different than those who reported to them. Bass and Avolio (2004) pointed out that leadership is in the 'eye of the beholder' and the leadership behavior ratings represented the people's perceptions of leaders (p. 9). Understanding the staff nurse perception of their nurse manager leadership behaviors that are related to staff nurse job satisfaction will contribute to improving staff nurse retention strategies. The Magnet Recognition program is one approach to improving staff nurse job satisfaction and retention. The Magnet Recognition program (Magnet) considers that the nurse leaders are the key to nursing excellence (American Nurses Credentialing Center [ANCC], n.d.). The sample population for this study was staff nurses in an acute care hospital applying for Magnet Recognition status. The purpose of this correlational research study was to describe the relationship between the staff nurse perception of their nurse manager leadership behaviors associated with both the facets of staff nurse job satisfaction (job satisfaction with: work on present job, pay, promotion, supervision, and co-workers) and staff nurse overall job satisfaction and the relationship between the facets of staff nurse job satisfaction and staff nurse overall job satisfaction in an acute care hospital applying for Magnet Recognition status (Magnet status). The intent to depart is conceptually and empirically shown to be a direct antecedent to actual turnover. Overall job satisfaction and turnover are inversely related. Brodke et al. (2009) reported overall job satisfaction was the best predictor of intent to quit. Many studies examined facets of staff nurse job satisfaction but the researcher identified that few if any studies examined nurse manager leadership behaviors related to facets of staff nurse job satisfaction and staff nurse overall job satisfaction in a hospital in the process of applying for Magnet status.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract : The problem addressed was the low job satisfaction levels of nurses and subsequent nurses' decision to leave the organization. The quantitative correlational survey study involved determining whether a relationship exists between nurses’ perceptions of nurse managers’ leadership style and nurses’ job satisfaction. Eighty-three fulltime medical surgical intensive care nurses in two hospitals in Phoenix, Arizona, completed the Job Description Index for Jobs in General (JID/JIG) and the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ, Form 5X). The results suggest a significant, positive correlation between job satisfaction and perceptions of nurse managers' leadership style by nurses. Nurses with the highest satisfaction scores in three of the six subscales perceived their managers used the transformational leadership style. The mean score for nurses whose managers were rated as transactional was higher than the mean score for nurses whose managers were rated as passive-avoidant. The promotion and supervision subscales and the job in general scale showed a significant relationship with transformational leadership. Implications for healthcare administrative leaders include hiring transformational managers to increase job satisfaction in nurses and offer nurses opportunities for promotion and training.

This book was released on 2014-06-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[This book] has its origins in courses taught by the editors and their collaborators for doctoral students. It therefore addresses the need to focus on how theories can be applied in the real world of clinical practice and the research based on it. Introductory and concluding sections make the case for the importance of theoretical frameworks when developing practice and research settings. Eighteen chapters cover individual theoretical approaches. While some, such as the theory of human caring and transformational leadership theory, will be familiar to many readers in the UK, others cover new territory... SCORE: 4/5 stars." --John Adams , honorary research associate, Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery , Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, Nursing Standard This is the first book to clearly and fully demonstrate the process of using theory to guide nursing research and professional practice. It describes a step-by-step format for evaluating nursing theoryís applicability to research, a format that links theory (both middle-range and grand theory) to research on a wide range of clinical populations and care delivery systems. The book describes how theory analysis models are used to examine various nursing phenomena as they relate to nursing research and professional practice, and provides key examples of how this is accomplished. The book takes the reader through the process of using a theory to guide research from inception of a research question to evaluation of future research. International experts in theory-related nursing research describe twelve theories that have previously been applied to research and practice and six theories that can be applied to future research and practice. Using a consistent analytic framework, each chapter applies a specific theory (from either nursing, psychology, sociology, or management) to a particular clinical population or care delivery issue. These encompass clinical, administrative, and educational nursing settings. The consistent format facilitates ease of comparison across different theories. Generous use of figures and tables further demonstrates the complex relationships between and among concepts embedded in the theories. Key Features: Demonstrates a systematic format for evaluating middle-range and grand nursing theoryís applicability to research Links theory to clinical practice at patient population and care delivery levels Provides a useful template for students of nursing disciplinary knowledge development Presents the scholarship of international researchers of theory-related nursing Includes theories from nursing, psychology, sociology, and management

This book was released on 2011 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bureau of Labor Statistics projected a shortage of registered nurses (RNs) growing to an estimated 581,500 by the year 2025 (an increase of 22 percent since 2008). Recent economical downturns have found many healthcare organizations experiencing a positive effect with the stabilization of nursing turnover. Once the economy begins to recover, however, experts predict the profession of nursing will still face the largest shortage in history according to projections by the American Nurses Association. Because lack of job satisfaction is a precursor to resignation, additional research regarding the identification of interventions that increase RN job satisfaction may result in retaining professionally qualified and prepared staff. This study proposed to identify through focus groups, staff nurse perceptions of nurse manager behaviors that influence RN staff nurse job satisfaction. A sample of 28 RNs, each participating in one of five focus groups, answered questions related to satisfaction with nurse manager behaviors. The investigator used qualitative content analysis to identify patterns within and across focus group data. Major findings of the study resulted in the identification of two conceptual categories (manager behaviors supportive of RNs and RN's perceived disconnect of work issues from the manager's role) and three major themes related to supportive behaviors (communication, respect, and feeling cared for). The results suggest the following as staff nurse preferences for nurse manager behaviors: open and honest communication that involves listening, consistency, and confidentiality; an increased level of respect including fairness and recognition of a job well done; and the sense of feeling cared for as when a manager meets individual needs and supports staff as professionals. The investigator compared the categories and themes to previous tools used in healthcare, which indicate the need for further item and/or tool development as well as further research regarding RNs' perceived disconnect of work issues from the manager's role.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first practical guide for nurses on how to incorporate the knowledge, skills, and tools of Strength-Based Nursing Care (SBC) into everyday practice. The text, based on a model developed by the McGill University Nursing Program, signifies a paradigm shift from a deficit-based model to one that focuses on individual, family, and community strengths as a cornerstone of effective nursing care. The book develops the theoretical foundations underlying SBC, promotes the acquisition of fundamental skills needed for SBC practice, and offers specific strategies, techniques, and tools for identifying strengths and harnessing them to facilitate healing and health. The testimony of 46 nurses demonstrates how SBC can be effectively used in multiple settings across the lifespan.

Vander Malle and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Home health care (HHC) is one of the fastest growing areas of health care. With this rapid growth and current pressures of cost containment, issues of subordinates' job satisfaction and retention are becoming increasingly important to HHC administrators and managers. Although there has been extensive nursing research on job satisfaction and retention, the first-line manager's influence on this has not been adequately studied. The purpose of this study was to determine if nurse managers' leadership behaviors and the task structure of the subordinates' jobs were related to subordinates' job satisfaction and intent to stay in home health care agencies. House's (1971) path-goal theory of leadership provided the conceptual framework for this investigation. This research study revealed there was a difference between registered nurses' (RNs) and home health aides' (HHAs) perceptions of their nurse managers' leader behaviors and perceptions of their task structure. There was a positive relationship between supportive leader behavior and job satisfaction for the RNs. There was a positive relationship between job satisfaction and instrumental leader behavior for the HHAs. Task structure was positively related to job satisfaction and instrumental leader behavior for the HHAs"--Document.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project examined if transformational nurse managers were perceived by their nursing staff as more effective leaders than transactional or passive/avoidant leaders using the Transformational Theory of Leadership through administration of the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (Form 5X) to nurse unit managers and staff nurses. 80 staff nurses and seven unit nurse managers participated in the study. Unit nurse managers completed the MLQ (Form 5X) about themselves and nursing staff completed the MLQ (Form 5X) about their unit nurse manager. Using descriptive statistics, unit nurse manager results were compared with nursing staff results. The goal was for unit nurse managers to describe their perceived leadership style as compared to staff's perceived leadership style of their unit nurse manager. Unit nurse managers' Outcomes of Leadership were also determined with the assumption that the higher the scores, the more transformational the leader. Four unit nurse managers rated themselves as primarily transformational with transactional and passive/avoidant qualities and three unit managers rated themselves as having stronger passive/avoidant qualities than transformational or transactional leadership qualities. None of the unit nurse managers were rated by their staff as overwhelmingly one leadership style over the other. Unit nurse managers were rated as using all three leadership styles - transformational, transactional and passive/avoidant - equally with minor individual variances among the unit nurse managers. Therefore, it was not possible to reach an accurate conclusion to the project hypothesis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many issues affect today's healthcare leaders, with perhaps the most important being staff satisfaction and high turnover rates. Recent data implies that job satisfaction and nurse retention is a direct correlation with nursing leadership styles. Current challenges like the nursing shortage require the modern day leader to diagnose the situation and determine appropriate strategies to foster a creative and autonomous working environment through empowerment. Between the healthcare reform and the imminent nursing shortage, precautions are being taken to balance innovation without incurring financial ruin (Carver and Candela, 2008). The average age of a nurse at the bedside is rising yearly, and estimates indicate that 50% of the current practicing nurses will leave the workforce in the next 5 to 10 years (Carver and Candela, 2008). The objective when reviewing the research was to assess effective leadership styles, training and impact on staff satisfaction. Upon review of the literature, a clear distinction emerged suggesting leadership styles such as transformational and transactional had a direct and positive association with staff satisfaction and retention through empowerment, motivation, shared vision and respect. A broad-based assessment system was introduced to nursing staff members in a busy emergency department as a pilot approach to create a transformational leadership style of management throughout the unit. The introduction of the Hogan survey provides each participant within an individual assessment report describing strengths, weaknesses, and details where each person is likely to find significant satisfaction, dissatisfaction, and opportunities for growth. The finalized results of this ongoing pilot will provide leadership with the means to understand potential within each staff member, see growth areas, and find future leaders within the existing ranks of staff nurses. Further benefits include an understanding of the motivations for each member of the staff so that managers can provide incremental transformational coaching based NURSE LEADERSHIP'S INFLUENCE OVER STAFF 3 on the needs of each staff member within their leadership structure. The benefits to the highest levels of leadership include a clear succession planning picture within existing leaders, as well as a reduction in staff turnover rates. At the end of the implementation phase, the pre-and post job satisfaction survey will be applied to all staff to determine if the engagement of staff has increased, along with the turnover percentages for the Department. These metrics will provide a tangible sense of success for the pilot.
