Original Topic 1 Assignment  Practice Problem Clinical Issues Summary

Nurses are the most affected by burn out and job dissatisfaction in the profession. This can be attributed to the nature of their work and the overall demands of the profession. Ultimately, frustration from the patients can elevate the bedside nurse’s stress levels leading to burnout. Burn out, and job dissatisfaction is a course for concern, especially in busy health care in the system (Aiken et al., 2002). The issues bring about individual problems that yield widespread problems in the whole organization. For instance, a nurse may develop “neuroendocrine” related responses and, ultimately physiological outcomes that can result in illness. Within the organization, job dissatisfaction and increased burnout can result in the poor turn out and elevated absenteeism impacting health care delivery within the organization. Nurses who deal with patients daily are liable to workplace stress that yields elevated levels of burnout and subsequent job dissatisfaction (Aiken et al., 2002).

The development of creative team building activities can help address the issue among nurses in various hospital settings while enhancing their overall job satisfaction. This is because such activities are meant to enhance nurse’s morale, increased communication, and trust that is very crucial in a clinical setting (Clark, 2009). Such activities enhance trust as well as improved morals in a clinic. The move creates a collaborative environment between colleagues as well as cooperation while integrating the team’s efforts in problem-solving. The activity can be organized individually, or it can integrate the whole organization. However, the involvement of the organization may limit the activities due to the need for money, but individual nursing cooperation can cut any cost required. They can set a particular day of how they can be a meeting taking into account their particular (Clark, 2009).

Question:

Do creative team building activities among the nurses relieve job dissatisfaction and minimize burn out levels in comparison to the nurses who do not undergo such activities?

P- Bedside nurses

I- Creative team building activities

C-Nurses who do get involved in the building activities

O-Enhanced job satisfaction and minimized burnout

Common areas that lead to overall job dissatisfaction include workload and the time spent with the patients and lack of understanding and communication with other health professionals.

Teamwork among the nurses involved resulted in better service delivery and job satisfaction.

Setting

(Where did the study take place?)

 The survey incorporated 55 private and 7 national hospitals in South Africa

The study was staged at Northwest region of Kaiser Permanente

32 health centers in England.

Sample

935 nurses participated

 

 

483 health professions participated while 264 clinicians took part in the study

About 10,022 staff nurses took part in the study

 

 

 

 

 

Method

 

A stratified sample was incorporated in the study and a cross‐sectional design

 

 

 

Incorporated a self-administered survey with a pretested structured questionnaire that contained 32 questions.

 

 

 

 

A postal questionnaire survey was used and regression analysis of the data

 

 

Key Findings of the Study

Burnout lack of advancement opportunities resulting in career stagnation; hence, job dissatisfaction additionally, lack of nurse participation in hospital matters leads to overall burnout.

Workload and job dissatisfaction was as a result of lack of communication and stagnation in the workplace, offering no room for development and personal growth.

Teamwork steered nurses into being involved in decision making, highlighting the presence of respect and inclusion in the handling of hospital matters hence a decline in the stress levels.

Recommendations of the Researcher

A better work environment yielded job satisfaction.

Involving the nurse in decision making through team activities will help build trust and subsequently alleviate the emotional outburst that is sometimes directed towards unforgiving patients.

Teamwork can enhance the overall work delivery to the patients if encouraged and developed. It serves to make the workplace as comfortable as possible.

  • Discussion Questions (DQ)

Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, including a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words. Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source. One or two-sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words. I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

  • Weekly Participation

Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately. In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies. Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work). Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

  • APA Format and Writing Quality

Familiarize yourself with the APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in Loud-cloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required). Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation. I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.

  • Use of Direct Quotes

I discourage over-utilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Master’s level and deduct points accordingly. As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content. It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

  • LopesWrite Policy

For assignments that need to be submitted to Lopes Write, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me. Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes. Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own? Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in Loud-cloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.

  • Late Policy

The university’s policy on late assignments is a 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies. Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances. If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect. I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension. As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.

  • Communication

Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me: Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class. Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
