Abstract: Objective To explore the influences of hierarchical management on working pressure and turnover intention in internal medicine nurses. Methods From January to December 2014, we investigated 53 internal medicine nurses working in Zhoushan Maternal and Child Health Hospital and the nurses were hierarchical management for one year. We compared their job satisfaction, working pressure and demission rate before and after the hierarchical management. Results After the management, the job satisfaction was improved from 90. 57% to 98. 07% (P<0. 05);the score of working pressure was reduced from (87. 9 ± 7. 3) to (65. 4 ± 6. 4) (t=9. 10,P<0. 05);the demission rate was declined to 1. 92% (P<0. 05). Conclusions Hierarchical management can improve internal medicine nurses′ job satisfaction, and reduce their working stress and demission rate.
