Abstract:
Purpose:The aim of the study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of nurses’ turnover intention in existing studies.
Methods:A literature search was conducted in two rounds. The first round was performed on December 16, 2018. The search period was from January 1, 2008, to December 16, 2018, and involved seven databases: MEDLINE and EMBASE, which are international academic databases, and KoreaMed, KERIS, KISS, KISTI, and KMbase, which are domestic academic databases. The second search round was performed on July 2, 2022. The search period was from 2019 to 2022.
Results:Fifty-three variables associated with turnover intention were identified in articles in the first round, with significantly associated work- and organization-related parameters, including burnout, emotional labor, job stress, role conflict, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment. Thirty-eight variables were identified in the second round, with mental and psychological parameters, including mental health and psychological capital, having a more significant influence.
Conclusion:The findings of this study can be used to prevent the turnover of hospital nurses and develop strategies for retaining excellent and professional hospital nurses.
