Abstract
Background: Perceived organizational support (POS) is necessary for the health care team, specifically for nursing staff, to improve job performance (JP) and the quality of care provided.
Objectives: This study aimed to identify POS and its relationship with JP among critical care nurses. We used a descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational survey as our method. A convenience sample of 133 Jordanian registered nurses working in intensive care units from 2 educational hospitals in Irbid participated. The Six-Dimensional Scale of Nursing Performance was used to measure the JP, and the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support was used to calculate the POS.
Results: Findings demonstrated a moderate level of both POS and JP. Furthermore, the study found a significant moderate positive relationship (r = 0.321, P = .01) between POS and JP.
Conclusion: Administrators and policymakers may be advised to pay more attention to improving POS and, consequently, JP among Jordanian nurses working in critical care areas to enhance the quality of care.
