Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the perception of the healthcare accreditation and the level of job stress and also to identify the factors affecting turnover intention in general hospital nurses. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed using questionnaires. Data were collected from 230 nurses who worked at one general hospital from February 20 to April 10, 2014. Data were analyzed with independent t test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and regression using SPSS/WIN v 21.0. Results: The scores of perception of the healthcare accreditation, job stress, and turnover intention were 3.05 out of 5, 4.30 out of 5, and 3.18 out of 5. A positive correlation was observed between turnover intention and job stress. Turnover intention was negatively correlated with perception. The factors affecting turnover intention were the perception of healthcare accreditation (35.3%), total clinical experience (12.3%) and job stress (7.4%). The total explanatory power was 55.3%. Conclusion: The perception of the Healthcare Accreditation was confirmed as a new factor affecting turnover intention in nurses. These findings can be utilized to the development of strategies for reducing job stress, and enhancing perception and resulting in both the quantitative and qualitative development of the healthcare system.
