Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the factors affecting turnover intention of nurses in Seoul Capital Area (SCA) hospitals with above 800 beds and the others. The 600 participants were recruited by convenience sampling and 512 cases were analyzed. For the nurses with more than 10-year career in the SCA hospitals with above 800 beds showed lower turnover intention odds than the nurses with less than 1-year career (OR: 0.16, 95% CI: 0.04~0.68). And the nurses with higher job satisfaction showed lower odds of a turnover intention (OR: 0.82, 95%, CI: 0.73~0.91). For the hospitals with less than 800 beds or located in non-SCA, the nurses with less than 1-year career showed lower turnover intention odds compared to the nurses with more than 10-year career (OR: 0.34, 95% CI: 0.14~0.84). Higher odds of turnover intention were showed for the nurses with lower job satisfaction (OR 2.74, 95% CI 1.58~4.71), lower wage satisfaction (OR 0.91, 95% CI 0.84~0.97), and higher degree of chronic fatigue (OR: 1.07, 95% CI: 1.02~1.13). Therefore, turnover management should be designed according to the characteristics of a hospital.
