In Sweden, the shortage of nurses in primary healthcare has increased significantly in recent years. This development is alarming because primary healthcare, both in Sweden and internationally, is responsible for a large part of healthcare. The aim of this study was to explore working conditions (change fatigue, leadership climate, and social support from colleagues) and characteristics of primary care nurses who are discontent with their current job, i.e., those with high turnover intentions and poor job satisfaction in Sweden. This was a cross-sectional survey of 466 registered nurses working in Swedish primary healthcare. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression. The results demonstrate that 21.1% of the responding nurses are discontent with their current job and have considered quitting. Being discontent had significant associations with poor leadership climate (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001), lack of social support from colleagues (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001), change fatigue (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001), poor health (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001), and working more than 40 h per week (<i>p</i> = 0.02).

In nursing, however, it is much more complex. This complexity is shaped by various factors related to patients, healthcare professionals and organisational structures. Nursing leaders must thoroughly consider these factors and their determinants, which necessitate a comprehensive assessment. Given the significant impact an inadequate SOC can have on patients, professionals and the organisation, it would be beneficial to address this issue. In nursing, studies on this subject are practically nonexistent and focus solely on the number of subordinates, highlighting the need for research in this area.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Methods:&lt;/b&gt; Between September and December 2022, a Delphi study was conducted. Forty-five experts were invited to participate. The study involved nurse administrators, FLNMs, university professors, renowned researchers and other non–health professionals related to health management. The participants completed an online survey over three phases. Factor analysis was performed on the items for which consensus was reached. The jamovi software version 2.3.15 was used for data analysis.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Results:&lt;/b&gt; A total of 35 experts participated in at least one of the three phases of the Delphi study. Following a comprehensive analysis of the identified factors, a consensus was reached on 31 of them. These were subsequently grouped into four categories: unit category (16 items, including complexity, resource management, conflicts and protocolisation and monitoring of activities), professional category (five items: number of staff, staffing stability and skill level and diversity of staff), FLNM category (four items: autonomy, experience and education and leadership style) and organisation category (six items: digitisation and information systems, education, research and implementation evidence-based practice and performing guards).&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/b&gt; Our research shows a high degree of consensus amongst participants in identifying the determinants and degree of relevance of SOC-related aspects.

This study aimed to evaluate the work changes and grievances of nurses who provided direct care for patients at tertiary hospitals during the pandemic.

A three-round Delphi study was conducted with 36 expert group participants from six South Korean tertiary hospitals. Overall, 36, 35, and 33 participants responded in the first, second, and third rounds, respectively. Nursing work was divided into three categories: “work related to COVID-19-positive and close contacts,” “work related to COVID-19 negative patients,” and “work related to common nursing tasks.” Organizational culture had the highest average for “increased compliance,” followed by “increased conflict,” “decreased collegiality,” and “growing sense of community.” The identified health problems of nurses during the pandemic were the highest for physical health, followed by mental and social health. These results showed that the workload and work intensity of hospital nurses increased significantly, and their physical, mental, and social health deteriorated during the pandemic. To overcome the crisis, the nursing organizational culture had a strong inclination to comply with the COVID-19-related guidelines with an increased sense of community. As conflicts between employees and departments grew, these were able to be overcome through trust and communication between departments, in which the nursing leadership played an important role. To protect the health and lives of people, it is important to secure skilled nurses in preparation for future disasters.
