What are the factors that affect band 5 nurses' career development and progression?
1Practice Development and Education Department, Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals Foundation Trust.
Background:
Continuing professional development (CPD) and career progression opportunities have been linked with job satisfaction and intent to remain in nursing.
Aim:
To provide an insight into band 5 registered nurses' perceptions of development opportunities and their ability to change posts.
Method:
A hermeneutic phenomenological approach was used, collecting data through semi structured interviews with six RNs.
Results:
Seven themes emerged, including the thirst for knowledge and the importance of structured learning and career advice. Barriers to career development were perceived as the working environment and the trust not enabling and facilitating development through funding and release time.
Conclusion:
Ward and team culture can inhibit career development and progression by failing to nurture staff and promote self confidence. In addition, organisational changes can facilitate career mobility.
