Abstract

This prospective study was conducted in three hospitals of Multan: Nishtar Hospital, Children Hospital, and Institute of Child Health and Institute of Cardiology from July 2022 to July 2023 to analyze the prevalence of turnover intention and factors contributing to it among emergency nurses working in a government hospital. Three hundred twenty-two nurses were taken as sampling subjects using a simple random sampling technique. Participants were given questionnaires that included details about demographics, work-related factors, and turnover intention. Results show that higher education, long work tenure, working in shifts, and workplace violence were associated with a higher likelihood of leaving among emergency nurses who were female and aged > 19 and 25 years. According to analysis, nearly half of emergency nurses intend to leave their jobs at some point in the future. To avoid staff shortages that would restrict the availability of emergency medical services, targeted interventions are needed.
