Book excerpt: In the highly competitive world of healthcare today, every organization is struggling to find ways to improve nurse satisfaction to help recruit and retain nurses. Nurse satisfaction is influenced by scheduling practices, and self-scheduling has been shown to improve nurse satisfaction. Self scheduling allows flexibility for the nurses in planning their work around their home lives versus their home lives around their work schedules. Being able to negotiate their shifts and hours is a satisfier that empowers the nurse, increases autonomy, and improves staff retention. Making simple changes in the work environment can make huge differences in nurse satisfaction and retention that impacts patient satisfaction. The literature shows that nurse satisfaction reduces staff turnover and absenteeism, and increases a sense of professionalism. This paper presents a detailed process of how self-scheduling can be implemented in the hospital setting, including the process of implementation, evaluation and dissemination of the information. Key factors of the change process are discussed as the new design is adopted with the goal of increasing nurse satisfaction and, ultimately, improving patient outcomes.

Book Relationship of the Work Schedule Job Satisfaction Turnover and Patient Pressure Ulcers

Download or read book Relationship of the Work Schedule Job Satisfaction Turnover and Patient Pressure Ulcers written by Julie Ambrose and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this direct practice improvement project was to determine if or to what extent a relationship existed between self-scheduling and block-scheduling with job satisfaction, turnover, and patient pressure ulcers. The project was based upon the following clinical questions: CQ1: How does self-scheduling compared to block-scheduling impact the job satisfaction of full-time nurses working in an acute care setting? CQ2: How does self-scheduling compared to block-scheduling impact the turnover of full-time nurses working in an acute care setting? CQ3: How does job satisfaction and turnover impact the prevalence of pressure ulcers within the acute care setting? The project implemented a quantitative methodology with a correlational design within an acute care setting in a West Texas hospital. The target population consisted of full-time Registered Nurses, who were surveyed pre- and post-intervention with the McCloskey/Mueller Satisfaction Scale. Job satisfaction data was analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to determine an association between variables. Patterns for turnover and patient pressure ulcers were collected for the three months before and the month after a schedule change. Results for each clinical question consisted of the following: CQ1: Results demonstrated a z-value of -2.147 and a p-value of 0.032, representing a positive correlation. CQ2: Findings revealed a 6.3% increase in turnover rates after a schedule change, indicating a positive correlation. CQ3: Results reflected a 7.3% decline in pressure ulcer rates and demonstrated a negative correlation. Findings support the impact and significance block scheduling had on nursing satisfaction and turnover.

Book Taking Action Against Clinician Burnout

Download or read book Taking Action Against Clinician Burnout written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patient-centered, high-quality health care relies on the well-being, health, and safety of health care clinicians. However, alarmingly high rates of clinician burnout in the United States are detrimental to the quality of care being provided, harmful to individuals in the workforce, and costly. It is important to take a systemic approach to address burnout that focuses on the structure, organization, and culture of health care. Taking Action Against Clinician Burnout: A Systems Approach to Professional Well-Being builds upon two groundbreaking reports from the past twenty years, To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System and Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century, which both called attention to the issues around patient safety and quality of care. This report explores the extent, consequences, and contributing factors of clinician burnout and provides a framework for a systems approach to clinician burnout and professional well-being, a research agenda to advance clinician well-being, and recommendations for the field.

Book excerpt: Integrates the science of self-care with other nursing and multidisciplinary perspectives This is the first text for the Professional Nursing Practice course in RN to BSN curriculum to present a conceptual framework for contemporary nursing practice based on the science of self-care that also incorporates other nursing and multidisciplinary perspectives. Built upon the premise that nursing is both a caring and a knowledge-based profession, this cutting-edge text illustrates how to attain and integrate knowledge from nursing theory and theories of related disciplines to achieve optimal evidence-based nursing practice. Using case studies to demonstrate the relationship between nursing theory and practice, the text underscores the importance of having a deep understanding and conceptual model of the unique role of nursing in society and its practice domain. The text instills a foundational understanding of the science of self-care and its contribution to contemporary nursing. It describes how this paradigm is gaining recognition as an effective anti-burnout strategy and demonstrates how it can be applied. Case examples from a variety of clinical situations integrated with nursing theory demonstrate the variables needed to achieve optimal nursing practice. The book illustrates what data to collect, how to analyze that data, how to design and implement intervention strategies, and how to determine their effectiveness. Key concept boxes, measurable objectives with critical thinking questions, and learning activities reinforce content. Additionally, more complex cases included at the end of the text and frequent links to nursing literature provide fodder for more in-depth analysis. Key Features: Provides an integrative model for nursing practice based on self-care that is useful in all clinical settings Illustrates how to attain and integrate knowledge from the science of self-care with other nursing theories Demonstrates the relationship between theory and practice through case studies Introduces students to the importance of recording and analyzing data to achieve evidence-based practice Includes measurable objectives with review questions at the end of chapters and many other pedagogical features
