Background summary
The escalating pressures and challenges faced by nurses in hospital settings
have raised concerns about their well-being, job satisfaction, and retention
rates. This study aims to comprehensively assess these job and health
characteristics among nurses and healthcare assistants at Erasmus MC - Sophia
Children's Hospital. Understanding these aspects is crucial for developing
support and relief mechanisms to enhance nurses* job satisfaction and
ultimately improve patient care capacity and quality. Central to this study is
the aim of enhancing sustainable employability for nurses and healthcare
assistants. By analyzing the effects of personal and occupational challenges
and opportunities, the project aims to lay the foundations for future
interventions that not only mitigate stress, but also support nurses' long-term
health, sleep quality, job satisfaction, and career longevity.
Study objective
The primary objectives are to: (a) identify the key pleasures, challenges and
stressors that nurses face, to be able in the future to explore potential
opportunities for professional development and support; (b) to ascertain the
primary threats to job satisfaction and happiness; and (c) to assess the
likelihood and risk factors of nurses leaving their positions.
Study design
This open prospective cohort study aims to survey nurses and healthcare
assistants employed at the Sophia Children's Hospital (Erasmus MC) with yearly
questionnaires.
Study burden and risks
Participation involves minimal risk, mainly related to the confidentiality of
responses and potential psychological discomfort from reflecting on job-related
stressors. The benefits include generating insights that could lead to improved
working conditions and support mechanisms for nurses. The study is directly
related to the group involved, as it aims to enhance the professional
environment and well-being of nurses.
