This study was conducted to identify job stress, nursing work environment, and turnover intention for nurses at COVID-19 dedicated hospital, and to identify factors influencing turnover intention. From September 1 to September 27, 2022, 144 nurses at a COVID-19 dedicated hospital in the I area were collected. The collected data used the SPSS Statistics 23.0 program. As a result of the study, the intention to turnover according to general characteristics showed significant differences in work experience (F=11.20, p<.001), and by position (F=4.09, p=.009). In addition, turnover intention showed a significant correlation with job stress (r=.561, p<.001) and nursing work environment (r=-.382, p<.001). The factors influencing turnover intention were job stress (β=.46, p<.001), work experience of more than 11 years (β=.34, p<.001), work experience of 3-10 years (β=.20, p=.022), nursing work environment (β=-.22, p=.001), and 43.9% of explanatory power. Accordingly, in order to reduce the intention to turnover of nurses at hospitals dedicated to COVID-19, it is necessary to create measures to reduce job stress and an efficient nursing work environment considering the characteristics of work by career in infectious disease situations.

This study was designed to investigate the impact of stress coping ability and recovery resilience on nurses' retention intent in medium-sized hospitals. For this descriptive study, a survey was conducted with 265 nurses from 5 medium-sized hospitals with over 150 sickbeds located in G and I province; the data were collected from May 19 to May 25, 2018. The collected data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. The average score was $2.55{\pm}0.25$ for stress coping ability, $3.47{\pm}0.49$ for recovery resilience, and $2.59{\pm}0.29$ for retention intent. Retention intent was positively correlated with stress coping ability (r=0.285, p<0.01) and recovery resilience (r=0.457, p<0.01). The factors affecting retention intent were gender (${\beta}=0.117$, p=0.027), job satisfaction (${\beta}=0.345$, p<0.001), stress coping ability (${\beta}=0.142$, p=0.008), and recovery resilience (${\beta}=0.238$, p<0.001). Furthermore, the model explained 37.8% of the retention intent (F=11.686, p<0.001). In conclusion, effective strategies for improving job satisfaction, stress coping ability, and recovery resilience for nurses need to be developed and investigated.
