Advanced practice nurses' (APNs) organization commitment is crucial for retention. Key factors influencing APN commitment include pay, job satisfaction, supervision, and person-organization fit (POF).
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Management
- Nursing Workforce Studies
- Organizational Psychology
Background:
- Global demand for advanced practice nurses (APNs) is rising due to physician shortages and increased healthcare needs.
- Enhancing APN organizational commitment (OC) is vital for retaining these professionals.
- Understanding factors influencing APN OC is essential for effective workforce strategies.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify key factors influencing the organizational commitment (OC) of advanced practice nurses (APNs).
- To investigate the relationships between pay scale, job satisfaction, supervision, person-organization fit (POF), and APN OC.
Main Methods:
- A cross-sectional survey was administered to 189 APNs at a major South Korean hospital.
- Partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was utilized for data analysis.
Main Results:
- APN pay scale positively correlates with person-organization fit (POF).
- Job satisfaction directly impacts supervision and POF, and moderates the supervision-POF relationship.
- POF and supervision are significant predictors of APN organizational commitment (OC).
Conclusions:
- Pay scale, job satisfaction, supervision, and POF are significant drivers of APN organizational commitment.
- Establishing APN steering committees can improve POF, supervision ratings, and commitment through enhanced communication and consensus.
