There is a critical shortage of neonatal nurse practitioners (NNPs) in the United States. The NNP shortage increases workload and negatively affects job satisfaction, which ultimately impacts patient safety. Therefore, it is imperative to identify strategies to improve job satisfaction and retention. Authors of current evidence supported the connection between mentoring and role transition, job satisfaction, and intent to stay. Mentorship is key to the success of new graduate nurse practitioners as they develop confidence in the nurse practitioner (NP) role. The aim of this integrative review is to examine the existing evidence regarding mentoring of advanced practice nurses and the potential impact on the NNP workforce.

ObjectivesTo develop a Polish adaptation of the Perceived Implicit Rationing of Nursing Care (PIRNCA)questionnaire.DesignCross-sectional validation study.SettingsNurses working in surgical and cancer wards in Poland.ParticipantsA sample of 513 professionally active nurses was enrolled in the study.InterventionTo complete a Polish translation of the full original PIRNCA questionnaire.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe primary outcome was translation and adaptation of the full original PIRNCA tool and its validation to the Polish conditions. The secondary outcome was determination of relationships between sociodemographic variables, nurses’ assessment of patient care quality and their overall job satisfaction on the one hand, and PIRNCA scores on the other.ResultsThe respondents’ mean score was 1.27 points (SD=0.68) on a scale from 0 to 3. Cronbach’s alpha for the entire instrument was 0.957. All items of the questionnaire were found to have a positive item-total correlation. The developed linear regression model showed that nurses’ assessment of patient care quality and their overall job satisfaction were independent predictors of PIRNCA scores (p<0.05). 94.15% of nurses reported rationing at least one of the 31 care activities.ConclusionsThe present findings indicate a high level of reliability and validity of the translated PIRNCA questionnaire, fully comparable to that of the original. The questionnaire can be used for the assessment of PIRNCA in Polish hospitals.
