Abstract

|
A low staffing ratio and poor shift work environment not only increase the turnover intention by increasing job stress in Korean nurses but also threaten patient safety by lowering the quality of nursing services. In this study, a predictable pattern shift schedule model was developed by reviewing previous researches, an analysis of nurses` shift schedules, and group discussions with nurses as well as experts in the field of nursing and related labor issues. Validity and feasibility of the model was evaluated using the Delphi survey technique with 16 panels from August 25 to October 8, 2021. Results indicated that the developed pattern shift schedule can be applicable to different hospital types and patients’ severity of symptoms. The content validity index (CVI) of the model ranged from 0.88-1.00 except for the item “equal number of night shift work” (CVI=0.69). Thus, appropriate staffing ratio level is a prerequisite for decent work and decent leaves.
