To identify attributes of home care agencies described by nurses as important to their professional practice and job satisfaction.
Seven focus groups with home health care staff nurses were conducted at 6 home care agencies located in three states in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. A total of 58 home care nurses participated in the study.
Transcriptions of tape-recorded focus groups were subjected to open and axial coding techniques.
Six major categories and eight subcategories of organizational attributes described by home care nurses as important to the support of their practice and job satisfaction were identified.
Attributes described by home health nurses were not only similar to those described by hospital-based nurses as reported in the "magnet hospital" literature, but they also were consistent with key concepts described in theories of professional workforce organization. Findings provide insight into developing workplace environments to support home care nurses.
确定护士认为对其专业实践和工作满意度至关重要的家庭护理机构的属性。
在美国大西洋中部地区三个州的6家家庭护理机构对7组家庭健康护理工作人员护士进行了焦点小组访谈。共有58名家庭护理护士参与了该研究。
对焦点小组录音的文字记录采用开放式和轴心式编码技术。
确定了家庭护理护士认为对支持其实践和工作满意度至关重要的六大类组织属性和八小类。
家庭健康护士描述的属性不仅与“磁石医院”文献中报道的医院护士描述的属性相似，而且也与专业劳动力组织理论中描述的关键概念一致。研究结果为开发支持家庭护理护士的工作环境提供了见解。
