Abstract:
Objective To study the status quo of turnover intention in ICU nurses in He'nan province, and analyze the correlation between the turnover intention and nursing work environment. Methods A total of 645 ICU nurses in He'nan province were selected by convenience sampling method and investigated with a general information questionnaire, the Intention of Quitting Scale (IQS) and Nursing Work Environment Scale. SPSS 20.0 statistical software program was applied to analyze the data. Results Totally 645 questionnaires were released and recycled, with 635 effective ones, and the effective recycle rate was 98.4%. The total score of the IQS was (15.03±3.40). The total score of the Nursing Work Environment Scale was (110.52±23.02), of which three sub-scales of the the nursing work environment, including leadership and management, adequate human resources and basic guarantee, had the lower score. The scores of the general scale of IQS, IQS Ⅰ and IQS Ⅱwere negatively related with the general scale of nursing work environment and its each dimension (P＜0.01). The IQS Ⅲ was negatively related with the dimension of leadership and management and basic guarantee (P＜0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education, ICU species, whether teaching, leadership and management and basic guarantee were the influence factors of the turnover intention, accounting for 23.9% of the variance.
