Residential Long Term Care

Despite an increasing literature on professional nurses’ job satisfaction, job satisfaction by nonprofessional nursing care providers and, in particular, in residential long-term care facilities, is sparsely described. The purpose of this study was to systematically review the evidence on which factors (individual and organizational) are associated with job satisfaction among care aides, nurse aides, and nursing assistants, who provide the majority of direct resident care, in residential long-term care facilities. Nine online databases were searched. Two authors independently screened, and extracted data and assessed the included publications for methodological quality. Decision rules were developed a priori to draw conclusions on which factors are important to care aide job satisfaction. Forty-two publications were included. Individual factors found to be important were empowerment and autonomy. Six additional individual factors were found to benotimportant: age, ethnicity, gender, education level, attending specialized training, and years of experience. Organizational factors found to be important were facility resources and workload. Two additional factors were found to benotimportant: satisfaction with salary/benefits and job performance. Factors important to care aide job satisfaction differ from those reported among hospital nurses, supporting the need for different strategies to improve care aide job satisfaction in residential long-term care.

Facilitators And Barriers

Previous literature has shown how associate engagement has positively impacted on productivity, job satisfaction, safety, retention, consumer sentiment, and financial performance in hospitals and healthcare systems. However, a lack of research showing the relationship between associate engagement and job satisfaction within the long-term care environment has existed. Our objective was to investigate characteristics within the long-term care environment that promote and detract from associate job satisfaction and extrapolate the best practices in maintaining job satisfaction and engagement. This systematic review queried CINAHL, PubMed (MEDLINE), and Academic Search Ultimate databases for peer-reviewed publications for facilitators and barriers commensurate with employee job satisfaction in long-term care facilities using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) and the Kruse Protocols. The authors identified 11 facilitators for job satisfaction and 18 barriers to job satisfaction in the 60 selected articles. The top four facilitators were Supportive Leadership, Capable and Motivated Employees, Positive Organizational Values, and Social Support Mechanisms. The top four barriers were condescending management style, high job demands, lack of self-care, and lack of training with medically complex patients. The systematic review revealed the importance of maintaining satisfied employees in the long-term care workplace through am emphasis leadership and on the facilitators identified to best serve their associates and improve care for residents.
