Abstract:
This study identified the exciting nature of work for 176 registered nurses employed in urban and rural home health agencies in the southeastern United States. The results revealed that the majority of the home healthcare nurses perceived their work as moderately to highly exciting. Nurses with higher levels of work excitement selected home care because of personal fulfillment, whereas those who were less excited chose home care for schedule flexibility. Both groups, however, cited direct patient contact as a major factor in their decision to practice in the home care setting.
