Full textLeadership implies followership, for without followers, there would be no true leaders. Followership has often been viewed in a negative fashion given the unidirectional nature of hierarchical power. Traditionally, a follower was assessed as unable to lead because of the assumption that a leader’s engagement is active and a follower’s engagement is passive. The word follower often advocates obedience and compliance in the minds of many and such a person may therefore be unfit for modern professional leadership discussions. However, assessing professional views of the term follower may provide insight for future leadership discussions, by understanding that followers get work done by working with other followers and leadership suggests the need for relational coordination with followers. This dissertation sought to advance the study of followership by examining the relational coordination of patient care through a study of hospital medicine. A hospitalist is generally thought of in terms of “service” (patient care), which is included in the literature on good followership. Hospitalists, as practicing physicians, are scientifically trained to possess the critical thinking skills that correspond to the Y-axis of Kelley’s Followership model. However, their training is to act independently without the intentional engagement (X-axis of Kelley’s model) of their interprofessional team members. This research detected a statistically significant relationship between relational coordination scores and followership types in the exemplary hospitalist followership type subscale of engagement with respect to other hospitalists and nurse managers. Additionally, there was a statistically significant relationship between relational coordination scores and followership types in the pragmatic hospitalist followership type subscale of critical thinking as related to case managers. Of the five followership types (exemplary, conformist, pragmatic, passive, and alienated), three types were eliminated from the analysis for the following reasons. For hospitalists, there were no conformist followers, there were no alienated follower hospitalists, and there was only one hospitalist who met the criteria for being a passive follower. As a result, it is more accurate to state that this research found a statistically significant relationship in relational coordination of hospitalists who are exemplary and pragmatic followers.

Full textCurrently, the same criteria are being used for admissions into nursing programs in one school of nursing in the Northeastern United States. To date there are no statistically significant data to correlate these criteria with successfully entering the nursing profession. Due to the nursing shortage, limited number of seats available in nursing programs, low nurse retention, and high nursing school attrition rates, it is necessary to use an admissions process designed to select the candidates who are most likely to succeed on the NCLEX-RN, and enter into the nursing profession. A latent class analysis was used, and revealed that the ideal candidate was found to be an individual who is either an optimistic, full-time student, who earned a high ACT score, and had a career prior to enrolling into the nursing program, or was an optimistic, part-time student, who earned a low ACT score, and had a career prior to enrolling into the nursing program. A survey provided further insight and the responses indicated applicants who self-reported that they: have good judgment, seek out challenges, are capable of anything, are professional, are optimist, need to utilize what is learned, are ethical in nature, are able to recover quickly for failure, are motivated by intrinsic factors, are self-directed, complete what they start, have a sense of team-awareness, admit to mistakes, are resilient, have a sense of spiritual well-being, and possess leadership qualities, ultimately entered into the nursing profession.

Full textMidwives play a critical role in the care of pregnant women from the first antenatal visit, through to the delivery and the postpartum period. The education of midwives has however become a concern, not only in South Africa but in many countries for a multitude of reasons. Evidence suggests that South Africa is devoted to reducing the maternal mortality rates as reflected in the Negotiated Service Delivery Agreement, signed in 2010, which identifies reductions in maternal and child/neonatal mortality rates as key strategic outcomes for the South African Health sector. However, by 2015 the set Millennium Development goals, specifically goal 4 (to reduce child mortality) and 5 (to improve maternal health) were not met and were replaced by Sustainable Development Goals, specifically goal 3 (to ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at all stages). This lag in meeting the indicators for improving the health of the population is associated in some respects to the education and training of health professionals.

Full textBackground: The nurse shortage is a growing problem. Only one region in Sweden is reporting to have a balanced situation with access to educated nurses. The shortage of nurses has shown to have a negative effect on the quality of care and patient saftey, which makes it urgent to keep the existing number of nurses.Aim: The aim with the literature review is to describe factors which can influence nurses to leave or stay within the profession and workplace in health care.Method: The literature review is based on 15 research articles, published during the time-period 2011 to 2021. Databases that have been used is CHINAL, PsycINFO and PubMed.Results: In the result two main categories are presented. In the category Work environment it emerged that support from colleagues and management influences nurses' stay at the workplace and being satisfied at work contributes to maintain good and safe care. In the category Individual factors it emerged that personal and professional development are important to become comfortable and confident working as a nurse. It also emerged that it is important with recovery and that the personal life was not affected by work.Conclusion: The factors mentioned in the literature review result can contribute to increase the possibility to create more attractive workplaces, and thereby prolong nurses’ stay at the workplace. That in turn can result in improved quality of care and patient safety and thereby also keep the profession’s credibility.

Full textBackground: There is a shortage specialized nurses both national and international which leads to increasing waiting time for surgery and a suffering for the patient. The lack of operating theater nurses makes it important to examine how the profession is seen and if it needs to be illuminated to make it more interesting. Purpose: The purpose was to examine nurses' perceptions of the operation theatre nursing profession. Method: A descriptive cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach containing qualitative elements based on web survey with open and closed response options. Result: Nurses consider the knowledge of the operating nursing profession to be satisfactorily. The profession is considered as important, physical demanding and unknown for nurses outside the operating ward. Conclusion: The operating theater nurse is considered as important for the patient safety and is an important part of the surgical team. Despite that nurses consider themselves having knowledge of the profession the operating theater nurse is considered a hidden profession and there is a need to further make the profession visible.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study stems from an urgent need to understand which factors contribute to nurse practitioners’ intention to quit, and consequently what organisations can do to retain these practitioners. There is increased pressure on the healthcare sector, more specifically nursing, due to a severe shortage in this discipline. These shortages are not an isolated phenomenon, but influence the private as well as public sector worldwide, as well as in South Africa. A multitude of factors contribute to the fact that nursing is a scarce skill worldwide. Some factors are controllable, others not. By isolating the controllable factors, organisations and managers can be equipped to put action plans in place to decrease the impact of this crisis. Processes and action plans to enlarge the nursing pool, and also to retain the current workforce, can contribute to overcoming this challenge. There is proof that the implementation of a structured talent management programme can contribute to overcoming this challenge. Line managers and their competence regarding the management of personnel play a key role in such a talent management programme. This study has as its objective to re-evaluate an existing talent management competency model for line managers, and to propose additional variables that can influence organisational outcomes like job satisfaction, organisational commitment and turnover intention. By understanding which line manager competencies influence organisational outcomes, and the manner in which they influence these outcomes, line managers as well as organisations can be equipped to formulate processes and programmes that can contribute to the retention of a scarce skill, and importantly, also minimise the impact of a worldwide crisis. The results of the study indicated that the operationalisation of the talent management competencies failed. The originally proposed model consequently had to be reduced by deleting all talent management latent variables from the model. Poor model fit was obtained for the reduced model. Modifications were, however, made to the reduced model based on modification index suggestions derived from the data. The modified model showed good fit and support was obtained for all the paths in the modified model. Crossvalidation of the modified model was recommended.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie spruit uit ‘n dringende behoefte om te verstaan watter faktore daartoe bydra dat verpleegkundiges die voorneme ontwikkel om ‘n organisasie te verlaat, en gevolglik wat organisasies kan doen om verpleegkundiges wel te behou. Toenemende druk word in die gesondheidsorgsektor ervaar, meer spesifiek op verpleging, weens ernstige tekorte in hierdie dissipline. Hierdie tekorte is nie ‘n geïsoleerde verskynsel nie, maar raak die privaatsektor sowel as die publieke sektor wêreldwyd, sowel as Suid-Afrika. ‘n Veelvoud van faktore dra daartoe by dat verpleegkunde ‘n skaars vaardigheid wêreldwyd is. Sekere faktore is beheerbaar, ander nie. Deur die beheerbare faktore te isoleer, kan organisasies en bestuurders aksieplanne in plek stel om die impak van hierdie krisis te verminder. Prosesse en aksieplanne om byvoorbeeld die verplegingpoel te vergroot, en ook om die huidige werksmag te behou, kan bydra tot die oorbrugging van hierdie uitdaging. Daar is bewyse dat die implementering van ‘n gestruktureerde talentbestuurprogram kan bydra om hierdie uitdaging te oorkom. ‘n Sleutelrol in so ‘n talentbestuurprogram, is die lynbestuurder en sy/haar bevoegdheid ten opsigte van die bestuur van personeel. Hierdie studie het ten doel om ‘n bestaande talentbestuurmodel vir lynbestuurders te her-evalueer en addisionele veranderlikes voor te stel wat organisasie-uitkomste soos werkstevredenheid, organisasie-verbondenheid en voorneme om te bedank beïnvloed. Deur te verstaan watter lynbestuurbevoegdhede organisasie-uitkomste beïnvloed en die wyse waarop hierdie bevoegdhede op hierdie uitkomste inwerk, kan lynbestuurders, sowel as organisasies, toegerus word om prosesse en programme te formuleer. Hierdie programme kan ‘n bydra lewer tot die behoud van ‘n skaars vaardigheid, en sodoende die impak van ‘n wêreldwye krisis minimaliseer. Die resultate van die studie het aangetoon dat die operasionalisering van die talentbestuurbevoegdhede onsuksesvol was. Die oorspronklik voorgestelde model moes gevolglik gereduseer word deur die talentbestuur-latente veranderlikes uit die model te verwyder. Swak modelpassing is vir die gereduseerde model bevind. Wysigings is egter aan die gereduseerde model aangebring gebaseer op modifikasie-indeksvoorstelle afgelei uit die data. Die gewysigde model het goeie passing getoon en steun is vir al die bane in die gewysigde model gevind. Kruisvalidasie van die gewysigde gereduseerde model is aanbeveel.

Full textBackground: There is evidence that nurses are leaving their profession to seek better working environments and high salaried professions worldwide. This increases the scarcity of skilled nurses in health systems. In Mozambique, nursing staff is increasingly pursuing education out of nursing, which means that they intent to leave the nursing career. Aim: To find out why so many nurses are pursuing education out of nursing: Objectives, to explore: (1) nurses’ experiences of working at the Maputo Central Hospital; (2) the links between nurses’ future education outside of nursing and their job satisfaction; (3) the links between nurses’ future education, their job satisfaction and their intention to leave the profession, and (4) nurses’ and key informants’ opinions on which factors would improve nurse retention at MCH. Study Design: Exploratory qualitative Study. Methods: Focus Group Discussion with nurses and in-depth interviews with key informants, in order to explore perceptions regarding factors influencing nurses’ to pursue education out of nursing. Analysis: The content of focus group discussion and all interviews were recorded, transcribed, coded and analyzed by identifying recurring themes. Ethics: The author was aware that this study would raise sensitive topics in nurses’ lives, and he took great care to be alert and responsive to ethical issues which might arise. Thus, all nurses and key informants participated in the study voluntarily. They were provided with a letter explaining the research purpose, requesting their participation and assuring them of confidentiality and anonymity, and they were asked to sign a consent form which was explained to them in detail. The study was presented to, and approved by the Ethics Committee of the University of the Western Cape. Results: Study results revealed job dis-satisfaction and its essential components as the main factors influencing nurse’s intention to quit their profession. Further, the issue of nursing image and status were found to be most important factors contributing to nurses’ future education in other courses rather than nursing. Conclusions: Findings from this research are relatively consistent with previous studies in terms of identifying common factors that influence nurses’ decisions to quit nursing and pursue other professions, and also worrying as nursing is immersed in deep trouble because many nurses are quitting, and the current prevailing nurse image and status is not attractive for replacements, what will impact negatively on health care delivery. Relevance of study: It is expected that this study will contribute to the implementation of appropriate measures to improve nurses’ working experience at the Maputo Central Hospital, meantime, encouraging their retention.

Full textBackground: Child abuse leave marks into adulthood. Research shows that abused children take higher risks in their teens, report lower self-estimated health as adults, are overrepresented in several physical and psychological conditions, and also hold lower socioeconomic status. Child abuse includes all forms of physical, psychological and emotional abuse as well as neglect. It is the outermost responsibility of the Swedish state to protect all children under the age of 18. As a part of that responsibility some professions, including health care personnel, are legally liable to report to social services. However, figures indicate that health care personnel in comparison to other professions with duty of mandatory reporting are under-reporting. Aim: To describe nurses’ experiences of in their role as professionals meeting abused or neglected children. Method: A descriptive literature review of ten studies with a qualitative approach. Main results: Meeting abused or neglected children is often a very emotional experience and several nurses express a need of support. A feeling of being unprepared is common and an insecurity of when to report a case is shown among many nurses. More education on the subject is requested as well as guidelines and support from the employer. Conclusion: Nurses are in need of support regarding these issues. Specific education, guidelines and a better communication with the child protective services has all emerged as possible improvements that can be implemented.
