Predicting factors of nurses’ intention to continue in nursing
Abstract
Population aging increases pressure on the health care service in many countries, including Finland. At same time health care is facing a shortage of nurses due to the lack of new nurses entering the workforce, nurses leaving their profession and nurses retiring early (1). Managers are in a key role in developing workplaces to be attractive to new employees and in retaining their professional employees. The aim of this study was to examine how job satisfaction, organizational commitment, self-perceived health and nurse managers’ leadership behavior relate to nurses’ intention to continue in nursing.
