This book was released on 2016 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This descriptive research used social network analysis to explore the influence of relationships and communication among hospital nursing (RN, LPN, CNA) and discharge planning staff on adherence to evidence-based practices (EBP) for reducing preventable hospital readmissions. Although previous studies have shown that nurses are a valued source of research information for each other, there have been few studies concerning the role that staff relationships and communication play in adherence to evidence-based practice. The investigator developed the Relational Model of Communication and Adherence to EBP from diffusion of innovation theory, social network theories, relational coordination theory, and quality improvement literature.The study sample consisted of 10 adult-medical surgical units, five home care agencies and six long-term care facilities. A total of 273 hospital nursing and discharge planning staff and 69 post-acute staff participated. Hospital staff completed a survey about communication patterns for patient care and patient discharge and about communication quality on the unit. Hospital and post-acute care staff completed surveys about relationship quality and demographic characteristics. Evidence-based practice adherence rates for risk assessment, medication reconciliation, and discharge summary were measured as documented in the electronic medical record. Social network analysis was used to analyze the communication patterns for patient care communication at the unit. These findings were correlated with (1) aggregate responses for communication quality, (2) aggregate responses for relationship quality, and (3) EBP adherence. Statistically significant relationships were found between communication patterns, and communication quality and relationship quality. There were two significant relationships between communication quality, and EBP adherence. Limitations in response rates and missing data prevented the analysis of all of the hypothesized relationships.The findings from this study provide empirical support for the role of social networks and relationships among staff in adoption of, and adherence to, EBP. Social network theory and social network analysis, especially the concept of knowledge sharing, provide ways to understand and leverage the influence of peer relationships. Future studies are needed to better understand the contribution that relationships among staff (social networks) have in the adoption of and adherence to EBP among nursing staff. Further model development and multilevel studies are needed.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: In a work environment stressed with organizational changes, financial constraints, various patient populations, policies and regulations that are constantly changing, nursing leaders have to visualize the future and lead the way towards a productive and efficient unit. Within the healthcare system the users are patients and satisfaction primarily depends on quality of care, thus patients once regarded as recipients of health care, are now recognized as healthcare consumers. It is prudent to identify and understand what influences healthcare consumers' perceptions of quality care and under what circumstances they are satisfied with the care received. Measuring patient satisfaction has a variety of applications and is essential in a number of clinical contexts. A lack of information exists in identifying specific relationships between leadership styles of nurse managers and patient satisfaction with the nursing staff. The purpose of this research is to identify the correlation between patient satisfaction with the nursing staff and staff nurse perceptions of unit managers' leadership styles in acute health care setting.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current and projected nursing shortage makes it imperative for healthcare organizations to examine factors that promote staff retention. Previous studies identify nursing leadership as a key component influencing staff retention and turnover. This study supplements these studies by identifying key behaviors and attitudes of frontline nursing leaders that influence staff retention. Using a grounded theory qualitative approach, the researcher interviewed 19 frontline nursing leaders in an acute care community hospital. The researcher also explored the extent to which nursing leaders felt current leadership education and training programs support their practices that promote staff retention. The goal of the study was to create a theory or model of nursing leadership and staff retention grounded in the data. Five major themes emerged from the interview data analysis process using grounded theory strategies. These themes include organizational culture and policies, nursing leaders training and development, behaviors and attitudes, employee factors, and turnover. The researcher interpreted the data within a systems theory conceptual framework. Using this framework aided the researcher in creating a model of frontline nursing leaders and staff retention. This model illustrates the inter-relationship of the five major themes from a systems perspective. The usefulness of the data collected in this study is predicated on three major domains: competency identification; human resource management and development; and education. Competencies form the foundation for the education and practice of frontline nursing leaders (Barker et al., 2006). These role-specific, evidenced-based expectations should be clearly delineated in competency-based job descriptions, which in turn merge into performance evaluations. Explicitly defined competencies provide a conceptual framework for collegiate and hospital-based education and training programs to train current and future frontline nursing leaders.
