[A Study of Job Retention among Nurses Engaged in Home-Visit Bathing Services]

It is necessary to include a nurse as staff in"Home Visit Bathing Long-Term Care"because nurses provide medical care such as vital sign measurement. However, the shortage of nurses is serious. A questionnaire survey was administered to nurses of E company, and findings showed that more than 50% of nurses felt physical fatigue. Correlation analysis showed that there was a significant correlation between"the intentions to continue working"and"good relationship between nurses and staff" (r=0.398, p<0.001), and there was a negative correlation with"low payment"(r=-0.232, p<0.01)and"physical fatigue" (r=-0.272, p<0.01). Although physical fatigue and low payment are factors that inhibit the intentions to continue working, the most important factor is human relationships. It was suggested that maintaining good human relationships enhances the intentions of nurses to continue working.
