This book was released on 2014 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nursing leadership, combined with psychological and structural empowerment has been linked to improved patient safety and outcome as well as increased job satisfaction and job effectiveness for employees. A nurses ability to operate as a clinical leader is affected by their workplace. Organisations that empower nurses to practice their profession optimally are organisations which optimise conditions for providing safe patient care. In the New Zealand (NZ) context, there appears to be minimal research regarding nursing empowerment, as well as negligible anecdotal evidence of the practical application of concepts such as transformation. This research sought to identify the clinical leadership behaviours of nurses, their current level of empowerment and the factors that influence their work effectiveness. Staff nurses at NZ's dedicated tertiary children's hospital were invited to complete a survey. Multinomial logistic modelling was used to determine the factors that influence the respondents' perception of their structural empowerment (Conditions of Work Effectiveness Questionnaire [CWEQII]), psychological empowerment (Psychological Empowerment Scale [PES]) and their clinical leadership (Clinical Leadership Inventory [CLI]) behaviours. Of the 542 nurses invited to participate, 224 responded. Nurses scored moderately high to high on both structural (CWEQ-II, M = 20.07) and psychological empowerment instruments (PES, M = 15.17). Overall they showed high levels of clinical leadership, identifying that clinical leadership behaviours were used most of the time (4.4) (>4 on a 5 point scale). Nurses who perceived they were structurally empowered (had access to information, support, resources and opportunities) also experienced psychological empowerment (found meaning, competence, selfdetermination and impact in their practice) (correlation between the total scores of CWEQ-II and PES; 0.53). The more supported they were by the organisation, the more able they were to operate as clinical leaders (correlation between CWEQ-II and CLI; 0.73). It was also found that NZ trained nurses were more psychologically empowered than those trained elsewhere and furthermore, nurses with greater than ten years clinical experience and who possessed a higher education were at greater risk of perceived structural and psychological disempowerment. This study showed that overall, staff nurses within NZ's children's hospital perform well as clinical leaders with good structural empowerment from hospital management. Management could sustain and even improve nurse empowerment by auditing the provision of structural empowerment, as all elements played an equal part in supporting clinical leadership, as well as providing extra support for nurses trained abroad and identifying the support needs of nurses with greater than six years' experience. These findings assist understanding on how best to develop and support nurses so they are enabled to provide the clinical leadership essential for optimising care and improving patient outcomes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work environments for health care providers in acute care hospitals have become increasingly demanding due to the impact of economic constraints, the rapid advancement of treatment modalities, and value systems changes among clients, as well as among heath care providers. In Japan, health care industries also face severe economic constraints. Because Japan has socialized medicine, the government controls reimbursements. Due to the dramatic growth in health care expenditures, the Japanese government has imposed regulations that reward shorter lengths of hospital stays with higher reimbursement. As a result, only patients whose conditions are critical and require complicated nursing care are now hospitalized. Consequently, the acuity levels of patients have increased every year. Under such conditions, administrators are charged with keeping the organization financially solvent so that they can remain in business, while continuing to improve the quality of their services. Although systems research in health care settings has received considerable attention in North American countries, there has been little research in this area in Japan, where systematic leadership training for nurse managers is also still in a developmental stage. Research on organizational effectiveness has shown positive correlations between managers' leadership styles and employees' psychological well-being or self-efficacy. The purposes of this study were: 1) to test Laschinger's Work Empowerment Theory with incorporation of leadership behaviors in acute care hospitals in Japan, and 2) to investigate how leadership behaviors might mitigate burnout and empower staff nurses working in acute care hospitals in Japan. It was expected that employees who perceived a high level of Structural Empowerment would demonstrate high Psychological Empowerment and low burnout level. If employees perceived high leadership behaviors in their immediate supervisors, their Psychological Empowerment was expected to be higher and their burnout level was expected to be lower. The following four instruments were used: 1) Conditions of Work Effectiveness Questionnaire-II (CWEQ-II); 2) Psychological Empowerment Scale; 3) Nurse Manager's Action Scale; and 4) Maslach Burnout Inventory. The questionnaire was distributed to 1,377 staff nurses working on 50 inpatient care units in two acute care hospitals in Japan. Participant response rates for all units were equal or greater than 50%. Psychometric evaluation of the instruments was performed. Construct validity and reliability were established for all instruments at the individual level. At the group level, construct validity and reliability for two instruments (Structural Empowerment and Nurse Manger's Action Scale) were confirmed, but not for two others (Psychological Empowerment and Maslach Burnout Inventory). Results suggested that the Work Empowerment Theory also fits Japanese nurses, but there was little effect of leadership behaviors on staff nurses' perceived empowerment. A group level analysis indicated that leadership behaviors did not influence Psychological Empowerment or Burnout, but influenced Structural Empowerment.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leader empowering behavior is a facilitative process where employees perceive their leader to allow self-management and self-leadership of employees. Leader empowering behaviors can be perceived by employees as either enabling or burdensome. The purpose of this descriptive correlational study was to examine the relationship of leader empowering behaviors with nurse demographics, work engagement and intent to stay. A convenience sample of nurses (N = 212) employed in various nursing units within four hospitals completed an online survey related to perceived leader empowering behaviors, and the nurse's level of work engagement and intent to stay in his/her organization of employment. Overall, the staff nurses in this study perceived their leader to be empowering (M = 5.62, SD = 1.07). A moderate, positive correlation was found between leader empowering behavior (LEB) and work engagement [([rho]) = 0.4559, p[less than]0.001)]. A moderate, positive correlation was also found between leader empowering behavior and Intent to stay, [([rho]) = 0.4937, p[less than]0.001)]. A strong, positive correlation was found between Intent to stay and work engagement, [([rho]) = 0.5164, p [less than]0.001)]. No significant differences were found between the staff nurse's age groups (p = 0.368) and LEB. No significant differences were found in LEB when the sample was divided into the staff nurse's age groups, education level, years in current department/unit, years in current hospital, years in nursing, employment status, and shift worked. The results of the study highlight the significance of leader empowering behaviors on staff nurse empowerment, work engagement, and intent to stay in their organization of employment.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canadian Adverse Events Study (Baker, et al., 2004) revealed that the rate of adverse events in Canadian hospitals is 7.5 percent and almost 37% of these are preventable. Given these statistics, it is essential that healthcare organizations develop strategies and engage in leadership practices, which will address the complexity of healthcare processes and ensure that care is provided in a consistent, reliable manner in order to achieve the desired outcomes (Frankel, Gandhi & Bates, 2003). It is equally vital that leaders create supportive practice environments that promote a non-punitive culture of learning, continuous improvement, inter professional collaboration, and professional autonomy, thus engaging nurses in safe practice aimed at improving patient outcomes (Aiken, 2008; Pronovost et al., 2003). In order to understand how nursing leadership affects outcomes, it is important to assess what leadership behaviours are most effective in promoting a patient safety culture. This study tested a hypothetical model which predicted the influence of nurse manager Transformational Leadership behaviour on staff nurse perceptions of supportive practice environments, organizational citizenship behaviours, patient safety culture, job satisfaction and objective measures of selected nurse sensitive outcomes. Findings supported the hypothesized model 2 (df = 22) = 40.72, p = .008; CFI = .958; TLI = .916; RMSEA = .079; SRMR = .045 linking transformational leadership to nurse and patient outcomes through supportive practice environments, organizational citizenship behaviours, safety culture and job satisfaction. Transformational Leadership had a significant indirect effect on patient falls (= -.08, p

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 2005 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on Stephanie G. Brown 2004, this study focuses on the implications of Bass and Avolio's (2002) theory of transformational vs. transactional leadership for nursing. Staff nurses were asked to complete a demographic survey and the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire and the McCloskey/Mueller Satisfaction Scale. After statistical analysis of the usable survey packets returned by 50 nurses, the results of this research were consistent with previous research studies in which there is a positive correlation between transformational leadership style and staff nurse job satisfaction. Study results also indicate that staff nurses perceived their nurse manager as having both transformational and transactional leadership styles.
