Abstract
Aim: Holistic nursing competence is very important for increasing job satisfaction and reducing turnover intention. The aim of this study is to explain the relationship between nurses' holistic nursing competence, job satisfaction and turnover intention, and the mediating effect of job satisfaction between holistic nursing competence and turnover intention. Design: The cross-sectional design was adopted and explained with a hypothetical model. Methods: The study was conducted between March, 8 and May, 5 2021 in a training and research hospital in Turkey. The research was conducted on 342 voluntary nurses. Percentage, frequency distribution, descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation) and Pearson correlation analysis were benefitted to evaluate the data. Path analysis was used for model testing. p < 0.05 was accepted for significance. Results: The mean scores of the nurses in all scales were moderate. Holistic nursing competence was positively correlated to job satisfaction, but it is detected as negatively and less correlated to turnover intention (p < .05). Job satisfaction played a mediating role between nurses' holistic nursing competence and their turnover intention (p < .05). Conclusions: It is important to understand nurses' holistic nursing competencies and job satisfaction and to reduce their intention to leave. These concepts should be taken into account in order to retain professional nurses with holistic nursing competence.
