There are high levels of turnover among home care workers. The study goal was to examine factors connected with job satisfaction of home care workers who resigned from their jobs. A survey (self-administered questionnaire) was conducted of 197 home care workers who resigned from their jobs with a home care agency in Jerusalem. Overall job satisfaction of the home care workers was low to moderate. Memory impairment of the care recipient and quality of the relationship between the care worker and the care recipient were significant in explaining overall and intrinsic job satisfaction of the workers. Functional status (activities of daily living) and the impact of the care recipient's cognitive status on the care worker were significant in explaining job benefit satisfaction. Home care workers who provide care to severely disabled and cognitively impaired older persons experience great work stress. They need ongoing support and training as well as better job benefits.
家庭护理人员的流动率很高。该研究的目标是调查与辞职的家庭护理人员工作满意度相关的因素。对耶路撒冷一家家庭护理机构辞职的197名家庭护理人员进行了一项调查（自填式问卷）。家庭护理人员的总体工作满意度较低至中等。护理对象的记忆障碍以及护理人员与护理对象之间关系的质量，在解释护理人员的总体和内在工作满意度方面具有重要意义。功能状态（日常生活活动能力）以及护理对象的认知状态对护理人员的影响，在解释工作福利满意度方面具有重要意义。为严重残疾和认知障碍老年人提供护理的家庭护理人员承受着巨大的工作压力。他们需要持续的支持和培训以及更好的工作福利。
