Abstract

Purpose: This study was done to identify the impact of emotional labor, social support, pay satisfaction and professional concept on burnout and intention to stay for infection control nurses and to identify the relationship between burnout and intention to stay.
Methods: Participants were 146 nurses who consented and faithfully responded to the research questions. Data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 20.0.
Results: The variables affecting burnout and intention to stay in infection control nurses were identified. Emotional labor (B=.424) had a positive impact on burnout, social support (B=-.528), professional self-concept (B=-1.056) and pay satisfaction (B=-.072) had negative impacts on burnout, social support (B=.392)and pay satisfaction (B=.136) had positive impacts on intention to stay, and burnout had a negative impact on intention to stay.
Conclusion: As a result, in order to reduce burnout in infection control nurses and increase their intention to stay, the infection control nurses themselves must invest in education and self-improvement to become specialists while hospitals and the government should make efforts to develop specialists by holding workshops and seminars. In addition, institutional procedures should be put in place so as to oblige hospitals to hire nurse specialists for infection control work in infection control units.
