Exploring the Relationship Between Psychological Capital and Turnover Among New Nurses
Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic drastically changed the health care work environment and exacerbated workplace demands and stress. New graduate nurses (NGNs) transitioning into their first registered nurse role were not exempt. Little is known about the emotional well-being of NGNs during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this article, we share NGN psychological capital (PsyCap) trends from 2019 to 2022 and explore the relationship between NGN PsyCap and turnover. Organizational, leadership, and individual implications for practice are discussed. Findings from this study can help health care leaders tailor emotional development and coping strategies for this important segment of the nursing workforce.
