ABSTRACT

Purpose:The purpose of this study was to search for factors affecting hospital nurses' turnover intention in Korea. Method:The participants were 13 nurses who had experienced at least one turnover. All interview data were collected using two MP3 recorders. Giorgi’s method was used for data collection and analysis. Results:The following five categories have been found: 1) Personal field: financial status, inability to overcoming crisis, other unexplainable feelings 2) Potential field: task which doesn't help improve one’s development, lack of opportunity for personal future, more important life than the one in the current organization, 3) Managerial field: lack of role models, lack of manager’s leadership, conflicts because of manager’s concern, 4) Organizational field: low position of nursing division, conflict with other departments, limits of systemic supports and 5) Professional field in nursing: severity of the task, working conditions, limits of improvement in professional practice. Conclusion:The result of this study may contribute to furnishing information useful in managing hospital nurses, and ultimately may help decrease the turnover intention of hospital nurses.
