Abstract

Background: Nurse turnover is a significant cause of human resource shortage, which not only increases the workload of existing nurses, reduces job satisfaction, but also affects the quality of care. Therefore, maintaining the stability of nursing human resources becomes a great concern. Objective: To understand the current status of nurse work alienation and turnover intention and its correlationship. Methods: By convenience sampling, from May to August 2021, 1112 cases were selected and investigated from three hospitals in Wuhan by using general demographic scale, the work alienation scale and turnover intention scale. Results: The average score of nurse’s work alienation was (30.32 ± 9.84); turnover intention score was (14.83 ± 3.99). The dimensions of work alienation were positively correlated with turnover intention (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Nurse’s work alienation and turnover intention are in the moderate level. It is recommended that manager should focus on the nurse’s mental environments, and take active and effective measures to reduce the level of nurse’s work alienation, improving the job satisfaction of nurse and the quality of nursing work.
