Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify turnover experiences of men in nursing and to derive a substantive theory on the turnover experienceof men who are nurses.
Methods: Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 13 men who had worked as a nurse for 1 year ormore, and had a turnover experience during that period. Collected data were analyzed on the basis of Strauss and Corbin’s grounded theory.
Results: The core category in the turnover experiences of the respondents was ‘seeking a stable place for me’. In the analysis of the core category,types of ‘contentment’, ‘seeking’, ‘survival’ and ‘confusion’ were identified. The sequential stages of these nurses’ turnover experience were‘confrontation’, ‘incertitude’, ‘retrying’ and ‘realization’. However, when a problem arose in the process, they returned to the stage of confusion. Thus, these stages could occur in a circular fashion.
Conclusion: These findings provide a deep understanding of the turnover experience ofmen in nursing and offers new information about how they adapt to nursing practice. The findings should be useful as foundational data formen who hope to become nurses and also for managers responsible for nurses who are men.
