Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine long-term care hospital nurses’ job stress and turnover intention.
Methods: Study subjects were 120 nurses at long-term care hospitals in Gwangju and Chonnam areas. Data were collected from October to November 2009, using the structured questionnaires. The SPSS Win version 15.0 was used for descriptive analysis, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson’s correlation coefficient.
Results: In this study, study subjects’ job stress is 85.39, and turnover intention is 14.19. There were significant differences in the turnover intention according to age (F=5.877, p=.004), position (t=2.276, p=.025), duration of working as a nurse (F=4.812, p=.010) and job satisfaction (t=-3.881, p<.001). There were no significant correlation between job stress and turnover.
Conclusion: The study shows that strategies to reduce job stress should be provided to long-term care hospital
nurses.
