Abstract Background Professional practice environment supports excellence and decent work and has the influence to entice and retain quality-nursing workforce. In high-resourced settings, significant number of studies exist to prove that professional practice environment with low levels of burnout play important role in enhancing patients’ and staff job outcomes. Appreciating the dynamics that affect turnover intention of nurses offer reasonable solutions to the challenges of nursing shortage, which directly influence quality of nursing care. Few studies undertaken on the subject in Ghana, however focused on miners, workers in the hotel industry, and worker telecommunication. There is evidently paucity of information on the impacts of nursing practice environment on turnover intentions among nurses in Sub-Saharan African. The study therefore aimed at determining the predictors of turnover intentions among nurses in Ghana. Methods A cross-sectional approach using a simple random and proportionate stratified sampling with a sample of 232 nurses completed validated instruments measuring work environment, burnout and turnover intentions. Descriptive and regression analysis were done on the various variables. Results While most nurses had positive perception about their work environment, greater number of them had turnover intentions. There was also significant associations between nursing work environment facets and turnover intention. The age of the nurse, years in nursing and the personal accomplishment of the nurse were significant predictors of turnover intentions of the nurse. Conclusion Burnout in any dimension results from unhealthy workplace; and unduly influences nurses’ turnover intention. This phenomenon can potentially affect the human resource management and the consequentially poor quality of nursing care provided to patients. Ensuring positive work setting and reduced burnout can therefore improves retention of nurses at their workplace.

Aim: The aim of this study is to examine the effect of nurses’ individual, professional and work environment characteristics on their perceptions of quality of care. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a university hospital where 400 nurses were employed, and conducted with 154 nurses who have been working in this hospital for at least one year and volunteered to participate in the study. The data were collected with an online questionnaire consisting of three parts. The survey form contained questions about the personal, professional characteristics, and workplace environment of the nurses, and their satisfaction levels about their perceptions of quality of nursing care, the Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis were used in data analysis. Results: Nurses rated their perceptions of quality of nursing care (mean score: 7.53±1.85; range: 0-10). The mean score of nursing work environment scale was 2.77±0.54. In the logistic regression analysis, it was determined that nurses’ perception of quality of nursing care was affected by “provision of necessary funding sources for quality of nursing care, competency level, staffing and resource adequacy total professional experience, nurse participation in hospital affairs (Nagelkerke R2=58%, p<.05). Conclusion: The nurses’ perception of the quality of care is closely related with nursing work environment in the hospital, their perceived self-competence and duration of their professional experience. Support provided by the managers about participation in management processes, providing opportunities for employees to develop their competencies, as well as providing adequate human and other resources in the working environment, will contribute and increase the quality of care.
