Book Critical Care Nurses    Perceived Leadership Practices  Organizational Commitment  and Job Satisfaction

Download or read book Critical Care Nurses Perceived Leadership Practices Organizational Commitment and Job Satisfaction written by Ngozi I. Moneke and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My writing of this book has evolved over the past thirty-six years of professional nursing practice. These were my first efforts as an author, which were published in 2013: Promoting a Culture of Safety: Preventing Central Line Infections in Weill Cornell Medical Center, which used a performance improvement process to lower the rate at which critically ill patients in cardiac care developed central line infections, and Factors Influencing Critical Nurses' Perception of their Overall Job Satisfaction: An Empirical Study, which used a correctional approach and was statistically analyzed to determine the perception of critical-care nurses of their manager's leadership style and its effect on their job satisfaction. Having been on the receiving end of leadership behaviors gave me a firsthand opportunity to observe these diverse nurse leaders at both extremes of the spectrumfrom laissez-faire leadership style to dictatorial leadership style and everything in between. Each encounter has enriched my life immeasurably. My personal and professional experiences, as well as the knowledge I gained from completing my dissertation, all compelled me to write this bookto share with novice managers and those aspiring for a leadership role an awareness and provide them with some valuable information needed as they forge their career paths into a leadership role, knowing that one of the keys to effective leadership is the ability to stay intellectually curious and committed to learning with the understanding that new knowledge can come from variety of sources and to make it a point of duty to be always on a lookout for new knowledge.

Book Perceptions of Stress and Its Impact in Intensive Care Nurses

Download or read book Perceptions of Stress and Its Impact in Intensive Care Nurses written by Joseph Perry and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of interpersonal interactions as stressor and stress reliever was highlighted in this study. Participants described the importance of social support in ameliorating the impact of stress but also described a reticence to acknowledge stress for fear of being judged as not suited to the rigors of ICU nursing. This study indicates that nurses perceive stress to affect many facets of performance with subsequent impact on patient care. Professional and legal duty of care requires nurses to address a known threat to patient care. Therefore, measures to relieve stress in ICU nurses should be explored in future studies. Further research into how social support can be optimized while not undermining the confidence and self-esteem of those receiving it has the capacity to significantly influence the experience of stress and its consequences in ICU nurses.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a significant difference between patients' and nurses' perceptions of the stimuli experienced by Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients. In addition, it determined if there was a significant relationship between the patients' perceptions of stress and the number of days spent in the ICU, the severity of illness, or whether a patient received an ICU orientation visit. The study was designed as a descriptive survey in which both patients and nurses rated, on a 4 point scale, the intensity of 22 stimuli commonly encountered in the ICU. The subjects were a convenience sample of 20 matched pairs consisting of a patient who had spent at lease 24 hours in the ICU and a nurse who had cared for that patient in the ICU.
