CONTENT ANALYSIS
Objectives and Scope
A quantitative-correlational-predictive research design was utilized in the study. This primarily assessed whether the leadership style predicted the turnover intention of nurses in rural health units of the province of Dinagat Islands for the last quarter of 2020.
Findings
The transformational leadership style, transactional leadership style, and passive-avoidance leadership style of the nurse supervisors were high as perceived by the NDP nurses. Overall, the turnover intention of the NDP nurses was moderate. Transformational leadership style, transactional leadership style, and passive-avoidance leadership styles did not predict turnover intention.
Conclusions
This concluded that the leadership styles of the nurse
supervisors did not affect the moderate intention of the NDP nurses to quit. It is safe to conclude that the moderate decision of the NDP nurses to quit was a decision that emerged after weighing each NDP nurse’ contribution to his or her rural health unit (RHU) against NDP nurse’ perception of the contribution of the RHU to NDP nurse’ life,
personal goals and well-being.
Recommendations
On the bases of the findings and conclusions generated in the study, the following recommendations are offered:
1. Nurse supervisors of every RHU of the Province of Dinagat Islands should be aware about effective leadership styles for retaining their nurses in nursing profession.
2. Nurse supervisors of every RHU of the Province of Dinagat Islands should not just focus on improving and maintaining quality leadership styles but other factors like domestic issues, work environment, and organizational system should be checked that may affect the nurses’ turnover.
3. That the proposed retention plan may be fully implemented.
