중소병원 간호사의 전문직업성과 직무만족, 직무스트레스가 이직의도에 미치는 영향

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify factors that influence turnover intention by considering professionalism, job satisfaction, job stress, and turnover intention among nurses in small and medium sized hospitals. The study was conducted using descriptive survey, among 149 nurses from January 1 to 31, 2017. Responses were analyzed using SPSS WIN 21.0. Nurses’ professionalism, job satisfaction, job stress, and turnover intention were measured through the self-reported questionnaire. Nurses’ professionalism (3.44±0.40), job satisfaction (3.01±0.31), job stress (2.88±0.4), and turnover intention (3.02±0.82), were at an intermediate levels. Among these variables, turnover intention showed a negative correlation with professionalism and job satisfaction, and a positive correlation with job stress. In this study, job satisfaction and job stress were the factors that most affected turnover intention, with an overall explanatory power of 22.2%. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested to develop and apply a housekeeping mediation program to minimize turnover intention, introduce a standard wage system, and resolve conflicts between managers and colleagues.
