Abstract:
Purpose:This study aimed to examine the influence of nursing organizational culture, nursing workplace spirituality, and nurses’ perceived health status on quality of nursing work life according to nursing clinical ladder at a tertiary hospital.
Methods:Participants were nurses working at a tertiary hospital in D city, and a total of 352 participants were recruited according to four stages of clinical experience: novice stage (below 1 year), advanced beginner stage (2~3 years), competent stage (4~6 years), and proficiency stage (above 7 years). Data were collected from February 7-February 16, and analyzed using descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Multiple regression.
Results:There was statistically significant correlation between innovation-oriented nursing organizational culture, nursing workplace spirituality, nurses’ perceived health status and quality of nursing work life. In all clinical ladder stages, nursing work spirituality and nurses’ perceived health status were factors influencing the quality of nursing work life; innovation-oriented nursing organizational culture was an influencing factor in the novice, advanced beginner, and competent stage, but not the proficient stage.
Conclusion:To improve the quality of nursing work life, it is necessary to develop and apply practical programs that reflect nurses’ characteristics at each clinical ladder stage.
