Objective:
To analyze the correlation between Coaching Leadership exercised by mobile and fixed pre-hospital care (APH) nurses and the structural empowerment of these professionals.
Method:
Analytical and descriptive study with 79 mobile and fixed pre-hospital nurses. The following questionnaires were used: Characterization of subjects; Nurse Self-Perception Questionnaire in the Exercise of Leadership; and Work Effectiveness Conditions Questionnaire II (CET-II). Descriptive analysis and inferential analysis were used with Spearman's test to determine the correlations between the dimensions of the instrument, adopting a significance level of 5%.
Results:
Coaching Leadership positively influences the empowerment of nurses working in the APH context, as evidenced by the weak correlation between the total scores of the instruments applied in the research (R = 0.376; p-value = <0.001). "Communication" correlated with all domains of CET-II, including the "total score" of the instrument.
Conclusion:
It is important that mobile and fixed APH organizations invest in the leadership of their nurses, based on the use of the Coaching Leadership model, especially considering that it has a positive influence on nurse empowerment.
